doesn't that just put off the inevitable that the 'new' will be the 'only' someday soon?
Changes that are not beneficial should be put off as long as possible, even if they are ultimately, inevitable.
eBay may be keeping track of how many users are using the old and new formats, and if enough users keep requesting the old format, that may convince eBay to delay the transition, or else force eBay to modify the new format to include useful features currently lacking -- such as Bulk edit, Search, Filters, Custom folders, and Offers.
If enough users continue to revert to the classic format, eBay may even reconsider making the change altogether, or may wind up making the new format much more like the preferred format.
If most users simply acquiesce to the new format, there is much less pressure on eBay to bother providing those features that the old format had that the new page lacks.
