New Search Function is AWFUL
My searches are typically for collectible stamps, and for years on end Stamps were listed in the main category menu. Now it requires a ton of menu diving to find what used to be in plain sight.
So, "thanks ebay" for making something that used to be so easy so bloody complicated.

OP2 years agoMaybe this is a (desktop) Chrome thing (Mac)?
Just tried Firefox and the categories menu is on the right. On Chrome it has changed. Here it takes two clicks and scrolling almost all the way to the bottom of the categories window to access the Stamps categories. That's a giant step backwards.
Too bad we can't upload images to these posts. Otherwise I could illustrate the differences quite easily (a picture's worth 1000 words).

·2 years agoIf you are using a desktop browser, there is a link to the Stamps category on the main eBay page you can reach if you hover your cursor over the Collectibles link.
I also see such a link in the category menu on the right side of the search bar -- though you may not see that menu if your window width is narrow or your browser's zoom level is high to make the text larger.
If you are using the eBay app, on the main screen there is a side scrolling list of topics at the top, swiping that to the left reveals a "Categories" link at the right end of the list, using that and scrolling down leads to a "Stamps" category.
