neepheid Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 eBay listings look weird to me today - all Fisher-Price and touchy-feely, ugh. Is this the beta thing that's been going on for a while and I'm finally being forced to use it? Quote
RussFM Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 It's been like that for a few weeks for me? Quote
Ou7shined Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 I find that it sticks if you use eBay[b].com[/b] then go into your own one (ebay[b].co.uk[/b]) therefore I avoid .com like the plague and only log into .co.uk. Clear your cache and then log back in and it should go back to "normal".... at least until it becomes mandatory. Quote

Ou7shined Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 Bummer! I thought mine had change a few days ago too but I followed my own advice and returned it back to normal again. I was invited to test the beta months ago but I didn't get on with it and got it set back to the "old" way. Maybe it has remembered that for me. There used to be a bit in the settings page where you could choose it on or off but I don't see that option now. Quote

I am opted out, My eBay displays old skool style as I expect it, along with a link at the top offering to try out the beta (no ta!). It only looks different when I view items. Quote
MB1 Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 MB1. Noticed mine was doing this before, and i'd opted out of Beta!...Ebay can be so annoying!... what with the previous forced Paypal Scenario.... now this!..If it ain't broke!...... Quote
