eBay Motors Redesign Lacks Function
I goto eBay motors daily to shop for cars or just really look at new models and what they are selling for. Today, I was greeted with a NEW eBay Motors.
Its nice and very “Web 2.0″ its got all the elements, pretty soft colors here is the old site for comparison:
I am used to this site, I go there click Cars and Truck and I am taken to a nice list of all makes and models, simple. The new eBay likes to make this simpler but yet they overly complicate it. Now I click on Cars and Trucks I get a page with ALL the listings and a short list of Makes. I have to click on “More Choices” now I have to make another selection:
Choose the Make I want to see, then hit update, then I have to choose the model, then I finally see what I want to see or do i?
Here is what I see, Choices to choose all sorts of options rather then just showing me the list, that’s half way down the page, you pay for premium placement on ebay and I guess they keep it all for themselves now with this huge space at the top, and notice the lack of options to sort they are in the drop down box there, here is the old view:
I can sort by year, miles, price just by clicking on the column, I found one quick fix if I goto http://cars.ebay.com I can see the old listing but if I choose any I get the new display. Why does eBay take away features and when did eBay turn into Edmunds?
Meh! eBay Motors lets do lunch and work out some of these issues please?!?!
