Load the web page. Then, to reload the page bypassing the cache and force a fresh retrieval; Ctrl+Shift+R (Mac=Command+Shift+R)

Try this several times.

Also, some users have to turn off Enhanced Tracking Protection for eBay -- you can click the shield icon at the left end of the address bar to open a drop-down panel. That should tell you whether any content is being blocked in the page and you can allow it by clicking the slider switch at the top of the panel.

@FredMcD and jscher2000.

Thanks for your help. I tried both methods with no effect. Windows then shut down telling me that an error had occurred. When Windows restarted, the eBay website worked perfectly.

Well, that's one way to solve a problem.

I spoke too soon. The situation has reverted to status quo ante.

Even stranger; ebay.com works perfectly well. Ebay.co.uk works well on Microsoft Edge.

Ebay.com works perfectly on Firefox, and ebay.co.uk works well on Microsoft Edge.
