Items now appear based on the time they become visible on eBay--not time listed

eBay UK:

***Change to ‘Time: Newly Listed’ sort order in Browse and Search*** 

We wanted to let you know that the way items appear in Browse and Search when listings are sorted by "Time: Newly Listed" has changed. Items now appear based on the time they become visible on eBay, and not the time the listing was submitted, as before.

For the majority of listings, there will be no noticeable difference. However, for a variety of reasons some listings may occasionally be delayed before they appear on the site and, before the change, it was possible that they would miss out on appearing at the top of a list sorted by "Time: Newly Listed". Delayed listings now show up based on when they first appear on the site, putting them on an equal footing with listings not subject to delay.

Please note that the change applies to the sort order, and does not affect the end time for auctions or alter the listing time shown under "Listing and payment details" when a buyer goes to "View Item".
