It's not working for me.
Could it be some sort of censorship based on the member's location?

It sure looks like it, apparently it only works 100% for ppl located in Germany, there is no maintenance or anything else going on as i can access just fine the sub-sections and run my searches by using a browser with a built-in internet anonymizer.

In Rotterdam Holland it works

Not working in Norway.

What is happening - it should at least have been some kind of message in the help pages of eBay telling foreign users of ebay that Militaria section has been closed???

Not working in Sweden either. Free market in EU!? Yeah not any more...

Interesting, although I cannot see the auctions, I can still bid on the few items I was watching, so I have the links for.

Hi, all

Same here - so for some reason (and as far as I can see there is NO info on the ebay site that they have removed access for foreigners) they have dissallowed us to browse these categories.

If this does not change over the weekend I believe I will pull the ´You occupied my country and tortured my grandfather - making him a war invalid´ card on them on monday - asking why I am not allowed to as an author search their site for research material on the occupation history.

Maybe get some of the major newspapers interested eventually...

Well, I have also sent the ebay.de support an email, so hopefully it will be possible to find out what is going on a least.

I just did a small test, and it seems that at least for me in Norway that every Sammeln und seltenes category is ´empty´

If it was just Militaria, then I would be more worried than when I see that I am not even allowed to browse for Pokémon trading cards....

Regards,
Andreas B

Ok, I'll send them a mail pulling the "you didn't bother to occupy my country" card... :-P

Anyway I've mailed customer support and questioned if this action is in line with the free market of European Union (a card you can't pull Andreas! :-)

Apparently quite a number of people on other forums are also making noice in different ways.

I've also been able to conclude deals on items for which I have the lot-number for.

It is also possible to view the other items sold by a seller of an item that you are watching by clicking on "Andere artikeln aufrufen". A time consuming approach though.

Hi, Mikael

Well, as we are part of the EEA, which should open up the borders a bit with regards to trade, I could try that card.

I really do not have a problem with them doing this if they had informed the customers and sellers! I can not browse the Sammeln und seltenes section at all - and thus I can not really even sell an item!

I can of course also see all the items I have in my watched folder, and also those I get search results on - but the received emails only contain a few of the search hits of a generic search - and following the See all results link is a dead end.

I am going to call them on monday and ask for an explanation.

Andreas B
