you folks don't see the #1 reason that fleaBay is making this change:
to show more advertising
this was the thought behind the search page advance links being moved
to below the ads on every page and the only problem with it is that
when it began, I thought the first page was the only page until after
a few searches and I knew there had to be more pages which made me
scroll down further to find the link to the next page
why do they want the ads to show so much?
AD REVENUE
they're grasping at straws and every time they make an improvement
for themselves, they make a detriment to us..
Sooner or later the stock will go low enough that Google or Microsoft
will offer to buy them out so they can integrate it into their own businesses

My main complaint is the issue of EBAY making changes that are
unnecessary and unsolicited by the users. They seem to do this all
the time -- sort of like "change for change's sake." As to the look,
I like it when a lot of the home page is right there in front of you
and doesn't requiring a lot of up and down scrolling. I like to see
as much info and pictures, categories and announcements as possible,
to hit you right when you open the page without having to extend the
page down with scrolling.
Thanks, Channing

Channing,
I tried mine and it looked nice to me. I see no negatives. Please
specify
what you don't like about it. Also, I use the Auctiva format and there
really isn't much of a change except for it looking a bit more
polished.

Subject: [MOPO] The EBAY Stores Experience
MOPO EBAY Store Owners --
When you go to make changes to your EBAY storefront (Manage Store),
you will be sent to a message to check out THE EBAY STORES
EXPERIENCE. This is the new format for EBAY stores that is being
forced on store owners by the end of March. They let you take a look
and see if you want to start using the new format now. Oh whoopee --
This link may get your there directly --

From a quick look I can say, once again, I am unimpressed. Changes
are annoying and make the store more difficult to look at with lots
of scrolling and clicking. Of course, the changes are being forced on
the sellers without any input from them. Will EBAY ever learn?
