Some of you will clutch your brows over this one, I"m sure.

Is there one central, best place to go to log-in to Ebay? I've been going to the feedback forum and pretending I want to send feedback, just so I can log in.

Sometimes the log-in box pops up when I want to bid at the last minute for an item. Annoying.

Or it pops up, of course, when I need to look at my account.

When my auctions end, I can't get the buyer zip codes in the completed auctions until I log in.

I'll bet everyone else knows exactly where to do this! IN the meantime, I guess I'll just muddle along.

There is a sign in link at the very top of every page. Right next to site map.

If you have not disabled cookies, when you log in there is a small box unnder the log in boxes that you can clik that will keep you logged in until you actually log yourself off the site.

There are still some occasions when you will have to log in but you will find that they are far fewer and in between.

One of the little things that I have done to make things easier foor myselfis also to set up my MyEbay selling page the way I like it (sorted by number of bids) and then bookmarked it and set it up in IE as one of my toolbar favorites. I have multiple selling accounts and have done this for each of them. This also keeps me from having to log in to each individual account to check on what's happening with each one. If you are closing items daily you may want to sort them by closing date instead.

I don't know if any of this will help but it has proven very helpful to me.

Thanks, everybody.

Sapington: Next to the site map is a box that says "Sign Out"! and, silly me, I actually thought it meant what it said, so I've never gone to that link. Now I see that they also allow a sign-in there. WHY DON'T THEY SAY THAT?!!!! Duhhh. That will be my sign-in spot from now on.

By the way, I always do check the box to stay signed in but it doesn't always hold. There was a thread here recently about that very problem.

Dadofstickboy: You're always a big help; in this case, though, it looks pretty bulky to try that, so I think I'll just stick with the "sign out" box which really means "sign in" too. Thanks, as always, for trying!

Road - if the text link says "Sign Out", you are already signed in. : )
