Is there a way to switch back to the "Classic" listing format? This new one is horrendous

I know for a while you could "Try" the new listing tool and then switch back to classic (Which i did immediately) but i just went to complete a draft and i didn't see a way to switch back. I also went to just start a new listing and the same thing - why would we be forced to use this new "Tool"?

It already takes far too long to list items with all these ridiculous item specifics but this new system seems like a cruel joke. I list on the PC, if i wanted to use a listing tool like the new one i'd just list from my phone. I tried listing from my phone and it was horrible. If you want to use the app by all means use the app but us DESKTOP sellers need a listing tool that works for us and this new tool ISN'T IT!

Please tell me there is a way to opt out or some sort of work around to go back to "Classic"

Sorry, no work around that I know of to get Classic view, it appears to be history.

The new listing tool is here to stay so you might as well get used to using it.

Have a great day.

Putting in part #'s (think interchange, old part numbers, compatible models) is absolutely horrendous vs the old way.  Keep the new look, with the old functionality.  These fields are absolutely paramount to getting customer's to our listing.  eBay if you're listening - fix this.  Also why do you have to reselect the shipping options on both international and domestic?  Seems like a huge oversight to me.  If you're getting paid a salary of more than 100k/y to oversee this project I hope you read this and feel personally attacked because you're doing a terrible job.  I'm mostly kidding.  I love selling on eBay but there are so many things wrong with this new listing tool that may be easier for the average everyday "garage sale" seller but as for small business - this feels bad.

It is horrible!!! When selling a similar item it will not let me change the brand, no matter what I do. Messed with it for 15 minutes, then I just gave up. You may be able to get to classic now, but it will not last long.

Great, thanks!

Is there a way to edit the existing listing using the old listing (or old edit) tool?

I don't think so, you need to re-list them again by using the old listing tool.

Good luck.
