I went into ebay my regular way and searched on the item number.
Got the following message:

The item you requested (2222844751) is invalid, still pending, or no
longer in our database.

Most likely the auction was pulled for some violation of their listing
policy (like they put a link to their business web page in it or it was
hin the wrong category, or keyword spammed or something).
When this happens ebay makes it go poof without a trace.
