IS there any way to even call ebay anymore? Neutral feedback disappear after cancel an order?

Item Description From The Seller - Is Now too Small

They reduced the size of the "Item Description Field" and added a Scroll Bar to the Right Side. That's terrible. They should make it easy to see and read. A very important part of the Sellers Description that the customer needs to read. Why make it s...
