Frequently bought together - causing massive lag and page shifts up/down rapidly

This frequently bought together 'feature' has just appeared for me on the eBay website in the last few days and it is a complete headache. As I scroll through my purchases, the page rapidly begins to scroll itself up and down rapidly, sending me sometimes multiple items away from what I was intending to look at. As this happens more and more the page becomes laggy and does not recover until a new page is loaded. I don't have a weak machine, it's just poor design.

 

I understand that it is possible to defer these recommendations for 30 days, but not only do I not trust that this option will remain, I strongly believe this should be entirely optional permanently. It is completely invasive in a space that is otherwise usually free from disruptions. I understand that eBay wants more sales on its site, but if the point is "Frequently bought together", well I already made my purchase didn't I?

Use the "Tell us what you think" or "Feedback" link on the page to let eBay page developers know about issues with the feature.

 

If you are using a desktop browser, you may be able to use the element hiding tool of an ad blocker to block the "Frequently bought together" sections of the page from appearing.
