I used to use watchcount to search for an eBay item number, and view the entire history of offers on an item after it had ended, such as in the screenshot below. The functionality doesn't seem to be working anymore and returns an error when I try to view the history. Anyone else encountering this problem ?

eBay's Most Watched/Popular Items and Auctions [USA] + How Many Watchers - WatchCount.com℠ (http://www.watchcount.com)

Thanks for confirming so it's an issue on my end. I get the below error when I go through my iPhone bookmark. I've tried logging into eBay and accessing watchcount from my eBay homepage as it states below but can't find a watchcount link when I log into eBay. Do you see a watchcount option when you log into your eBay account ?

works for me fine, just tested

Ebay is not associated with Watchcount. Matter of fact they have threatened them before.

you have to go to watchount.com on your browser.

Ok I tested something randomly and it worked. I tried it on my iPad rather than iPhone and it worked fine. Why that's the case I have no clue lol

So you made me aware of this on watchcount, but I'm still wondering if the offers in the history are accurate. I looked up 2 cards I won recently by best offer and both said in their histories offers that were higher than mine and declined. Actually, one card, my offer was lower than all 5 other offers, yet the seller took mine. I'm highly confused looking at these histories, but again, thank you for reminding me that link is there next to the price.

Those may have been counteroffers not accepted?

Yes that's right, if a counteroffer is made on an offer, the counteroffer is what is displayed. But it's at least handy in displaying what offer was accepted by the seller

As far as the other offers being higher, remember best offer is not always the highest price. I have taken lower offers on many occasions when there is a repeat buyer or the other with a higher offer seemed like a problem bidder.
