It is strange that eBay does not keep the original listing open after it ends but arbitrarily replaces it with whatever they want. It is confusing to me.

Never minder Ed. We put in the finds when we find them . If that is nog enough , those members should disregard our findings and look for their own. EBay replaces past auctions as explained before.

Rémi, thank you.
Was the Do 217-V4 the only example of this configuration?

No, there were two very small pre-series: the Do 217A and the Do 217C.

It is disappointing that ebay deletes photos when they no longer need them, but it is a business and there is no profit in keeping sold items active.


I have an extensive archive of downloaded photos of Luftwaffe aircraft from old ebay auctions on my hard drive which I would gladly share publicly if I could find a suitable stable website. I initially intended to use Photobucket but now it is almost unusable due to pop-ups. Then I tried Pinterest but photos must be uploaded one at a time which would take several years. I found some discussion groups but they seem to spring up and then quickly wither with monotonous regularity.

Have you tried with Flickr? Marc-Andre has his archive there since a couple of years and it seems quite stable. You can upload several photos at once too.

Good point, Steven, about ebay, but they have made a few unannounced changes which are not helpful. In the case of a seller, there is now a screen that looks like it was prepared for stock market reporting, not the average person. When I called about this, I was told I could not get the old, simpler, easy to use screen back. Paypal has made a few unnecessary changes as well. Oh well.
