eBay users are reporting the hover over image to zoom functionality on the View Item page is no longer available, even when the images uploaded by the seller are large enough to qualify.

Is everyone having the problem I now have as a buyer, that hover to zoom is no longer working on photos of item within the item pages ? This started with the introduction of the new format recently. I can click to enlarge but I cannot zoom to see a specific detail. I have tried different operating systems and different browsers and his is consistent throughout.

Not all users are impacted by this issue though, some report the zoom function still works for them.

eBay has recently been testing new designs for the View Item page, so it's not entirely clear if this is a glitch/browser issue or if it may be part of the ongoing testing eBay is conducting.
