New message system. How can I change it back

[morning_chorus]

Hate the new message system. How can I change it. 

[hettsville]

If you are lucky there should be classic view in the top right corner.

Press/click that and it brings up a switch back button.

I can't find that 'classic view' option. I had the original system and a fe weeks ago it gave me an option to switch and I took it, regretted it ever since. The damn system just doesn't work properly and buyer's just aren't receiving replies.

[a45heaven]

you clicked a 'try this' or ' See Our New .. System' button on ebay ? 

I thought folks would have learned after MP debacle.

Ebay will force folks eventually, what ever the usability of what they have designed - no point in having a longer punishment period.

I have been away from eBay for some years so didn’t know.

I just switched between the old new messages systems.

The switch back to classic view link had moved to the bottom of the page on the right.

[lw67]

Doesn’t apply to me as I’ve been away from eBay for a couple of years.

[lw67]

Which page was it at the bottom of. If I select messages I get no such option, either top or bottom.

[hettsville]

When I switched I got a page with a scrolling list of messages down the left hand side and the last message was displayed in full on the right.

Looked like this on my tablet browser.

Thanks, very helpful. It's now been removed, on mine on my ipad tablet anyway🙁.

How do I put my Android phone back to classic messages? Do not like the new method.

Thanks mate i found it the classic option link at the right bottom side of messages. The new message system is really bad and not working on iphone 😡😡

I'm using the ebay app.

Yeah ebay tricked me by suggesting "try it now" they used the word "try" now I can't change it back and hate the new format, I'm wondering if it's not too late to uninstall the app and then reinstall it? 

[sharrelwright1970]

But what about the app? Where can I find this switch 

[hettsville]

On my ebay app messages there is a classic view link in the top right corner.

When I pressed it a restore classic view button appeared at the bottom if the page.

But it didn't look much different when it was restored.

It looked like this for me on my tablet but it might be different on mobiles.

I just changed mine back with s link down the bottom. Open a message and right down the bottom it said go back to classic

You absolute star *****

P.S. Please leave it alone Ebay !!!

I clicked on classic site but it just reloads back to where I was with this new look, which I don't like. 

[michaels2400]

Link to change back to classic view is bottom right on my PC (may be different on other devices).  Hated the new layout  so glad I was able to switch back.

[doshprompt]

Yes that is the solution I found as well - new system is not for me !
