EBAY'S CONSTANT CHANGING OF FORMAT

What do you all think?  I find ebay's constant changing of format and ways of doing things, unbearable.  NEVER, never is the change anything to do with anything other than change for the sake of it.  Never, never is the change an improvement, nor does it ever offer ANY advantages.  The only advantage is to the "developers", who obviously only get paid for "developing".  Other sites are consistent, this is how you do it and this is how it works.  Marketplace etc., are all very reliable.  Ebay, well.....for example the postal options/system has just changed, the content is the same, you enter the same details BUT first you have to find out how ??????? the lists are slightly arranged differently, that is all, BUT the information you give is just the same - only it now takes longer to enter!!!!!!!   The developers seem to be in charge at ebay - not a good thing for the company or US.

I think you have to take this attitude if you use Ebay:

 

'God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference ...'

 

To be honest, the changes don't bother me.  A shorter quote, 'it is what it is' and, ultimately, nobody has to use Ebay.

"There are two ways to be fooled. One is to believe what isn't true; the other is to refuse to believe what is true.”
Søren Kierkegaard, Danish philosopher (1813 - 1855)

EBAY'S CONSTANT CHANGING OF FORMAT

Change for the better is good, change for the worst needs to be remedied, change for change sake is detrimental and eventually self destroying (an ebay phenomenon), which I wouldnt like to see as I use it. If it works, dont fix it. I would like to just accept things but this is not advancement.
