Bad news. The categories disappeared completely. I did my usual update categories, it flashed briefly and said no new categories were available.
Now, composing auctions, there are no categories at all. Help, please. I can't justify another lost day of listings.

Just had the same experience. Tried the other menu option for downloading new categories but that also did not work.

Okay, we made a fix that should keep the categories from disappearing again. Run the category update again.

Thanks, everything is working now.
