    I was not going to ask this question on this forum until I saw ebayIvanka's post regarding the Morgans but here goes

    My bids on ebay are no longer colored, they are all black. They used to be green for high bid, red for not high bid. All black makes it difficult to keep up with what is going on.

    Aside from (what seems to be) the general consensus that I should not shop on ebay, does anybody have any idea how to fix this? I have searched ebay and googled and spent several hours on this and nothing I can find works. I assume the problem is actually browser/computer related because at the office I do not have the problem.

    Any input would be appreciated.

    I'd suggest clearing your cache/history/cookies and restart the browser, see if that helps.

    I'm sorry that I don't know how to fix that problem, but don't let these guys scare you away from e-bay. The grousers are vocal, but there was a poll here a while back that showed there are a high percentage of ebay shoppers here.

    I will give Krispy's suggestions a shot and see what happens.

    I had noticed that while there is a certain amount of ebay bashing, there are certainly a lot of people looking at Ebay judging by the number of links posted. I will ignore the grousing and continue to bid when I can. Bidding is not as easy with this little technical glitch, I will have to say.

    eBay - the site we LOVE to bash.
    But the site many still buy and sell on.

    My main gripe really has nothing to do with eBay itself.
    It has to do with the prices that many sellers expect to get for their items.
    Auction listings often start around Coin Values prices (or PCGS, or Red Book).
    And store items are generally well beyond that.
    And just as often when an item opens at a reasonable amount bidder often take them to unreasonable levels.
    As a buyer these situations limit me to about one item a month.

    Of course the other side of the coin as a seller I hope the bidding DOES get to unreasonable levels.
    (I know, the old "...cake and eat it too" syndrome.)
