When you go to your eBay summary page and it looks wierd, all rearranged, multicolored with banners and stuff is missing, just pick "opt out" to the right of the screen. It will return to normal. They are playing games again with the buyer screen layout.

That's because you are in BETA mode!!
I hate their beta cr@p!!
Call me conservative
But, I like the way it is
Keep it the same
If it's ain't broke don't fix it...
 
They changed it without asking me. But I guess it is their ballfield and they can do what they will. It is still one hell of a flea market.:foot:
 
When you first open e-bay and open a search page the option is there, a quarter of the way down on the right side, once you open a page the option is not there, just tried it, should work 8.08 EST.

I want my old summary page back!! Please stop changing stuff when I have enough trouble dealing with your singularly un-ergonomic pages as it is!! Don't you want my money?? Are you trying to lose customers?? Go justify your salary somewhere else!! Give me back my old format. There is no opt out button visible any more!!

I emailed this to ebay under their "contact us".
 
I do not think the BETA test happen to everyone all at once. I had it going on a few months ago. Even when I went back and did the OPT OUT, there were still old features I did not have any more. Learn to adapt. Bitching won't even get you a reply that is worth a crap. :jerkit:
 
ok rusty you were right about that, but it dosent change "my ebay" thats still all screwed up. Im a computer dummy what is this beta stuff and how do i get my,"my ebay back, or is it gone for good??????? heeeellllllllllllllllPPPP!!!!!

The new My eBay, currently called My eBay Preview, will become the only version of My eBay available in the new year.

From May through October, 2008, the My eBay team solicited feedback about the new My eBay, which was in beta at that time. Many of you gave us specific product-related requests and feedback about the new My eBay (thank you!). As a result, we iterated on the design and features.

We are now ready to retire the old version. On Tuesday, January 20, 2009, the new My eBay will be the only version of My eBay available.

:mad:
 
I kind of like it:o . I was one of the guinea pigs who was sent the beta a while back, and didn't realize there was an opt out feature until a week later. By that time I had gotten used to the layout so I kept using it. It's not bad once you familiarize yourself with it, although I still haven't bothered with the customizing yet. What I don't like is that occassional beta they throw up on the search function with the "best match" and all that garbage. It's a confusing mess and I hope they mothball it for good.

I was pissed off for awhile too, and now I have no idea what features I could not do. The benefits of approaching being a senior citizen.
 
I am well past "approaching being a senior citizen." If anyone connotes that as negative, they will soon change their tune; life is indeed short! I have spent the day familiarizing myself with the new ebay format. It is a done deal, as I understand. Let us move on. Meanwhile, I see that the "refresh page" function is gone. Unless I am mistaken, if you hit the F5 key at the top of your keyboard, it will do the same thing, always has, and will continue to do so for almost all web pages. Would you like to see your webpages in a larger font? Hold down your Ctrl key and rub the wheel on your mouse up or down to change the size of the text. Now, what do I do to make the prices on Schrades more reasonable?:eek::jerkit::(
 
....gee I luv it when someone stands up and says it like it is and not like it aint! Well said tongueriver...Hoo Roo
 
I just had my cable company to my house to check out my connection.
My internet is so fast I am getting whiplash..................until I get on eBay.
It takes FOREVER just to scroll down the summary page! :yawn:
If this is the new eBay, they can get along without me. I have one thing I am bidding on & then I am done unless the speed increases exponentially.

I wonder it the snipe I have set will still work?

All the TECHNOLOGY Ebay has and they can't let you display BOTH the "watchers" and the "views"?? (as a seller)
I have to hit the circular arrow button to view one of them only mad::confused:
 
Well I notice ebay is running much faster now.
My snipe did work and as a result I finally got a Challenge TL-29 to go with the Schrade, Ulster, Kingston, Schrade Cut Co, and all the other TLs in my collection.

It was a good day. :D:D
