Can't watch items on eBay using Opera

A Former User

I suddenly can't watch any items on eBay when I am using Opera. I have no problem when using other browsers. Any suggestions please?

Open a private window in Opera, log into Ebay and test. Does it work fine there at least?

Another thing you can try is to install <https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/user-agent-switcher-5/ and set ebay.com to mask as Chrome for Windows. But, edit the Chrome for Windows string to be Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/83.0.4103.61 Safari/537.36 so that the extension uses an updated string. Or, you can just try https://www.reddit.com/r/operabrowser/wiki/opera/extensions/mask_as_chrome really quickly to see if it helps.

Thanks for the help. Opening a private page worked out fine and just out of interest when I returned to normal mode I tried watching some items in eBay and guess what? It worked. I don't pretend to know how that happened but it's working and I am just glad it has resolved itself. Thanks again for your help
