'I used to enjoy Ebay as a buyer and a seller. Over the last 6/7 years or so it has gone to the dogs. If it were to disppear I wouldn't miss it.'
Yes, I've also found my enjoyment of eBay has rapidly declined over these past few years. The switch over from the old, Classic pages to the new look/Seller Hub etc, along with the introduction of Promoted listings started the downward spiral - and Simple Delivery & the BPF have pretty much finished it, imo.
Of course, I could have fallen prey to 'everything-was-better-in-the-old-days' syndrome... but where eBay is concerned, I do believe it was better!
