Hallo Sander:

Yes... I saw that one too. A very rare 1937 US style Ford 3 tonner with the typical Low Countries cab I believe and as a tractor for trailer towing. Very, very rare indeed.

Hi Sander:

Damn, I am not sure. I do not do a good job of referencing my photos off of ebay, I merely put in what I think or know the vehicle is and add the date, for example 0408 to use the US method.

You have my email address, perhaps you can forward the other two you were asking about.

Hi Bert/Hi Sander:

Thanks for the assistance:

This is a bit off topic but I know we monitor ebay.de and I imagine many other members here do as well.

I don't know if it is my browser or ebay.de, but I have been having a lot of problems with the operation of the site this last month or so.

Normally when I choose to view a photo or album, the advertising thread changes in colour from blue to a sort of purple and this was a very good way to keep from viewing the same photo over and over. In the past, this colour change would remain for some weeks. Now, it seems to refresh itself every few days and all the advertisement threads return to blue.

The other problem is the sequence of the advertisements. Up until about the same time, all advertisements were in date order meaning the oldest would be first and so on down to the postings of, for example, today. which would appear on the last page. Now, there appears almost daily groups or individual photos on sometimes the first, second and third page of, say 4 pages of "lkw" photos. The only thing I can think of is that ebay.de has changed their policy on the number of days you have to list an item. It used to be 10 days but now I see entire groups coming up that expire in 3 or 4 days.

Do you guys have any thoughts on this and are you experiencing the same issues???

The only thing that i noticed was that (Sortieren nach ) normaly on Neu eingesteld on my PC was changed to Bald endende angebote zuerst,so i do believe that they did some sort of changes on the E-bay.de page,because i never had this problem befor.

It works fine now.

Thank you Sander:

Sad to say, I have a rather good command of the German language when it comes to technical or military words, but I am a bit lost when it comes to "conversational German"

So, I do not even read the instructions on ebay.de, I merely use the same routines I use on the American, British and other ebay sites.

According to your reply, it may be that ebay.de has changed some of its protocol and I must perhaps use babelfish or some other medium to translate the changes.

I will let you know the result.
