Bring back classic view

The changes ebay keeps forcing upon sellers is really hacking me off.

Issue 1: I HATE the 'new look' Why can I no longer choose to use the classic seller view?

Issue 2: I am capable of deciding if I want to accept offers, I don't need ebay to decide it for me by default.

Issue 3: I am also quite capable of choosing which delivery service I wish to use.

And I am not sure it is entirely legal for you people at ebay to steal a percentage of the fee I have charged for postage, you have done nothing to earn that money, what I pay to a courier or the Royal Mail is no business of yours, you should not be allowed to take 10% of any money paid to a company other than yours for a postal delivery.

I'm sick to death with all this nonsense, one day another auction site will appear and you wont see me for dust

GET RID of your stupid, ugly new layout **bleep**

You are talking to members here like yourself, so we have no control over how eBay run their business or choose to give us different page layouts. They do not visit these boards, either.

There have been many complaints you are not alone, but our complaints will fall on deaf ears, as the Seller Hub page is here to stay.

As for charging 10% on postage that happened nearly ten years ago now, was discussed to death especially the legality. It was brought in because sellers found a loophole not to pay eBay fees. For example, sell an item for 99p, add a £50 postage, seller receives £50.99 for the sale, and does not pay a penny in fees.

This fee avoidance couldn't go on, so now it's a level playing field for all. Sellers selling items with a ' Free Postage' always paid this fee.

So, the few here, spoilt it for the many honest sellers.

Thank you, I am fully aware of everything that you have said as I had an Ebay shop for many years before it became more trouble than it was worth on account of Ebay intefering with everuy aspect. Imagine that, the solution to the problem you mention above is for Ebay charge sellers for a service which Ebay has not provided, can you think of any other business which charges a fee for something which it has not provided? And FYI I am fully aware that anything posted in this community area is not seen by Ebay staff. What is? The only reason to pay admin staff is if the company gave......let's be polite and call it a hoot about the concerns of it's customers
