eBay, why did you remove the Item Hot Links in eBay Messages?
STUPID! STUPID! STUPID!
For decades, when you sent an eBay Message to a seller about a specific eBay item, the messages always had a HOT LINK to that eBay Item. Made it really easy to go to the item for review.
Also, the emails with the message used to have the same HOT LINK, but no more!
As of today, now there is no hot link. You have to do a search for the item number, which is luckily still in the message title?
Why would you do that? Whoever thought that was a good idea, needs to get pulled from the eBay brain trust. That was NOT A GOOD IDEA!
Please put the item links back in the eBay Messages as well as the message emails.

I totally agree with you, but I’m sorry I can’t help myself…..

As a work around until/if it gets fixed - if you click "reply" it stills has a link on that page. I'm guessing eBay is working on rolling out the new Messages experience and broke something.

I think (hope) it's a glitch. I have notified Ebay on another thread.

Totally agree! I assume like some other recent app updates that this is an unintended change. Have emailed the developer with my "thoughts".
