Details

On the URL mentioned above you can see that the content is rendered too long for Firefox to display. That's why a vertical scrollbar is displayed. However, this doesn't appear in Internet Explorer.
Re-Assigning this bug to myself: I notified the ebay webmasters about the issue. Hoping they'll fix it very soon.

Happens in Safari, too. I'm not entirely convinced this isn't just eBay having crappy HTML. Since eBay allows HTML in item descriptions, I'm not sure there's much that can be done about this sort of thing. If you want to try to get them to fix it, best of luck to you, but this isn't generally worth a TE bug (especially since it's going to end in a week or so anyway).
(In reply to comment #2) If you want to try to get them to fix it, best of > luck to you, but this isn't generally worth a TE bug (especially since it's > going to end in a week or so anyway). I can assume that this kind of CSS error also happens on other ebay Motors pages. I know that it's not a big issue but I noticed it when someone from live chat told me about it. Anyway, I just got a mail from ebay and they told me, they are working on the fix of this problem.
The URL is no longer valid and thus, I'm closing the bug as Incomplete. If the issue reappears, please re-open the bug!
