Is it RIP Classic view?

I realize I may be one of few people still using and liking Classic view but I would be interested to know whether I am a dinosaur or if the disappearance of the option is as irritating to others as it is to me. And if this is a temporary situation or has it gone forever?

It hasn't gone yet as far as I know, but I believe the Seller Hub is the future.

I switched to the Seller Hub months ago and once I had organised the page to show what I wanted to see, and became familiar with it I would never go back, although I retain a link as there is one thing that the Hub does not seem to have is the ability to see Deleted Items and Undelete them if required.

Apart from this the Hub suits my requirements, is easy to use and a lot of facilities the Classic site does not got.

I am old enough to dislike change, but am prepared to try new things and if I find something is better, I am happy to stick with it.

I'm still using Classic View as I refused to allow eBay to switch my account over to their new "improved" layout when they first tried to impose it on me. I don't believe in altering things just for the sake of it, especially when the new "improved" layout cannot be described in any way as a genuine improvement upon the old system.

i still use the classic view as well as i hated the `new` view, but i guess we`ll all have to swap eventually, you know what happened to the dinosaurs 🙂

The dinosaurs got wiped out by a meteorite, not by a refusal to adjust to a new way of doing things. You don't think eBay will attempt to wipe us out if we refuse to use the new "improved" system, do you? I suppose knowing eBay they could simply close our accounts if we refused to switch to their new "improved" system...

The way things are going, i think meteorites are the least of our worries and nothing surprises me on this site anymore, so if you don`t hear from me for a while ............
