Question
eBay publishes upcoming changes to Categories before the changes take affect, so Category changes may appear to be misleading.
Answer
Category Changes Information Information about Category changes is available on the eBay web site :http://pages.ebay.com/categorychanges/ This page gives an indication of when Category changes are expected to go live. However, viewing individual Category change pages out of context may indicate that upcoming changes have actually been made. For example, consider this change in Motors Categories :http://pages.ebay.com/categorychanges/motors.html It has no indication of when the category change will take place, so it seems to imply that the changes have already taken place. Please view the Category change page to see when the Category changes will take place.
