Is there still a way to view my desktop ebay on my new Android Phone?

Hi. I used to have a link on my homepage of my Android phone for ebaymotors that worked and looked identically to that of my pc.  It would refresh automatically showing the newly posted listing.  I had to get a new phone and the Firefox and Chrome are different.  Ebaymotors on both Firefox and Chrome are terrible.  For instance if I go to ebaymotors on Firefox and try to search "all vehicles" like I used to,it no longer works.  Same for Chrome.  Anyway to get the flawless ebay I have on my Home PC on my phone?  Thank you in advance.

For me it's a link at the very bottle of the page that says "classic site"

Thank you for the reply. Are you using Firefox or Chrome?  So you just click the Classic Site and it brings you to desktop view?

I just went to ebaymotors.com on Chrome.  Scrolled to bottom and clicked on the underlined Classic Site and it loaded the same exact page I was on?

You should be able to request the desktop site version of eBay in your mobile browser.

 

See here for instructions for most browsers:

One potential complication: if you have the eBay app installed on your mobile device, it may be set to open eBay browser links in the app. If you want to open eBay links in your browser, go to your device Settings: Apps: eBay: Open by Default: Open supported links and from there you can choose whether eBay browser links open in the app, the browser or if you are asked each time.

 

Once you are able to request the desktop site version of the page, as long as you open all links in the same browser tab it should remain in desktop mode.
