Faster Refresh. When an auction-style listing has 15 minutes or fewer left before it ends, buyers will see a new Refresh link near the Place Bid or Buy It Now buttons. Using this link will update just the top section of the page, which shows the current high bid, the time left, etc., instead of the full page. This will make it much faster when seconds count – especially for members using slower connections.

The full item page will still be refreshed in cases where the seller has updated the listing with new information.

Watch this item Button. We're turning the Watch this item link into a button. This appears in the center of the item page, and we think the button design will make it more noticeable for buyers.

To see how these changes will appear, please see this screenshot.
