What's back: Category Browse Path!

Gee, there's an actual improvement over what I saw a couple months ago! Oh, wait, that feature was in the original search.

Now, just "What's back:" the rest of the existing system (except Best Match) and throw out everything else that was in the New Search Experience, or Finding Experience, or whatever your calling this functionless piece of junk these days, and you'll have it about right!

This site just can't stand any more changes right now. Buyers are going to log in, get bombed with pop-up ads, won't be able to make anything work right, and are going to log right back out!

I really love the new look. The snapshot view is most impressive, and it is totally easier to refine your searches. I look forward to this being rolled out. A definite improvement!

I want you guys to fix the shop ebay stores box. You are messing it all up for those of us paying $49.95. MarniSue why can't you corner someone!

Beachy!! You caught it too? The Shop Ebay Stores box? call me ok!

Why does opting out of the playground dump me back to the home page instead of dumping my into classic search. That's very rude. You can code it so my search terms get transferred into the playground, you can also code it so they get transferred out.

Good Morning Everyone -

Thank you for taking the time to post. Since Best Match and Global search are a function of classic and the same on playground as in classic, I would like to address your concerns off line or in a different thread. Please feel free to email me directly at MarniSue@ebay.com, or post your thoughts about Best Match here: Link

All of our efforts are to increase traffic, sales and buyer confidence.

Did you look at the playground before you posted or are you speaking about the ads on classic? I will be happy to forward your concerns on regarding the ads or anything else.

Thanks for posting!

Is the stores box issue the one you emailed me about? I thought in your last email you reported it fixed. If not, please email me again with the details so I can forward it to the stores team.

I will also forward your concern about the display of the red door & about me icons.

Thanks for taking the time to post

Thank you so much for your very constructive comments.
I have forwarded your suggestions to the team for to see if we can incorporate them in the future.

As per Custom Item Specifics, you are correct, at this point they are not searchable via title search or via Item Specific search, but we are working towards that end. However, each time a seller assigns a values for CIS in the sell flow, sellers are asserting their influence as to what will be recommended to other customers and eventually should be visible in search. Additionally, they are providing valuable information to their customers on the View item page.

Thanks to all of you for taking a peak at the playground.

We look foward to hearing more from you.

MarniSue,

eBay Classification Team, Global Search

Thanks for unnecessarily stretching out the page!
