Offers expire in 4 days now?

Options
Small time private seller here...
Just sent out several offers & ebay is showing that they expire in 96 hours & not 48.
Not noticed this before - anyone else seeing this?
Last offer I received for me to buy something (15th September) was valid for the usual 48 hours.
Also no selling fees offer for me this weekend (tried old links which usually works)  :'(  
Lurking in a galaxy far far away...

    I hadn't noticed that but I haven't done any offers for over a week now due to an upcoming holiday and worries that buyer might delay payment.

    I'll watch out for that when I get back as that will make a difference in how late I can afford to send offers for my next holiday.

    There appear to be quite a few changes going on which are worth reporting on here if we see them, although for some reason they don't seem to be rolling out changes across all accounts, even my 2 private accounts have some differences.
