Ebay Newly listed long shot but can you help?

Hi all , basically i get a lot of the stock for my shop from the newly listed on ebay, basically refreshing the page every 5 seconds and trying to buy the stuff people list before anyone else.
Anyway ive been doing this for around 6 months and recently ive hit a few problems, basically the listings im seeing have been live for other people before me as all the best stuff has gone ive been trying to find a way round this!
A google search suggested using an ipad which i have been doing and did work for a week or so as they were coming up just like they were previously, but this week its all gone down hill i could sit all day and get 9-10 per day! but the last week ive had around 2 items! Im basically looking through the crap nobody else wants!
Im guessing the ipad uses different servers to view the item? i dont really understand but if anyone else has any ideas it’d be great to hear them! Also its ebay UK
Thanks

No such thing, everyone will see everything at the same time, no one gets priority…
Answer #2
Not true, for example on mobile i see listings 1,2,3,4,5 and on desktop i will see listings starting from 5,6,7,8,9,10
