Sometimes ebays counters are messed up and delayed for when a item is ended and not in the search bar. I would recommend turning it off "Ending Soonest" if you have it on that and seeing if you can click on auctions that have apx. 20 or more days left. If you can more click on them than more than liking the timer is just delayed on when the item will end. I sometimes get confuesed this way too. If that is not the case I would try the following. The first thing I would try is the basics if you already haven't done that. Try logging off and back in. Exiting the browser and opening it again. Restarting your computer. If it's still doing that after I would contact ebay directly with the problem. http://pages.ebay.com/help/account/contact-customer-support.html
