Default ebay, WTF?

How shit is the new layout and search options for ebay? Good god it's shit!

Makes things SO much harder to search for, less options to choose and makes narrowing the search that much harder!

FFS, cunts

I thought it must have changed for everyone All I know is mine was fine till monday when it wouldn't let me login

So I rebooted PC and when I logged in, it looked all gay

Now searching for stuff is a fucking pain in the ass as half the options I wanna tick to narrow the search aren't there anymore

gmail have done the same thing - revamped it slightly, cept that now gmail is slow as a shit and lags Least tho they have a link at the top to click called "older version" which when you click takes you to the previous look which is lightning fast

Shame ebay don't have that option!

I use outlook express for G-Mail.

As for ebay, all the options are there, just not as easy to do anything anymore

Yeah the new look listings & search, etc is also pissing me right off as well

Ebay is really starting to fuck me off now what with the stupid things like not being able to leave noticable negative feedback for twats who waste your time, dont buy, etc and as you say now you've got the thing saying if you dont log in on your normal computer you have to answer a call to your preset landline number, etc

Ahhhhhhhhhhh found it.

Without putting anything into the search bar, click search and it takes you to a page giving you the option to opt out

Ebay is shit, have got a retard at the mo complaining that I asked for her address, so I could send a cheque, which is a form of payment SHE said she accepted!!
She received and SIGNED for on 28th june, and filed a NON PAYER dispute today, ebay is beyond a joke, she now says she didn't file a complaint about non payer, cheque HAS been cashed.
New layout is crap, hopefully if they can see how many are going back to previous one(don't know if they can tell?) they might keep old one ?

rigdoctor, you keep jusmping in other peoples posts and a bit off topic, not a pop at you,

but start your own thread, as theres plenty of people on here who will help if they can, and more people will see your problem.

include the link if you can of the item you bought, then people can go digging for info that may help you

Your gripe is with ebay - take it up with them instead of coming on here to hijack everyones threads

Passionford do not police the internet and all ford based sales (contrary to popular belief)
