Bob, I had a small group lot of 33-4 Goudeys in the regular Pre-1950 category before the change. When they switched it, my lot was autmatically put in the 40-9 category. As there were no bids, I ended the auction and decided I would relist when things as settled.

My take is that the post 1945 cards should be moved in with the 1950s-- as that's where the 48-9 Bowmans, Leafs, Bond Bread, etc belong anyway. I'm sure the 1950s cards would agree.

They did a similar shakeup with the baseball memorabilia, so now my photos are listed in with the toiletries. Though, their memorabilia categories are sensical.

I think, eBay strategically changes categories periodically then watches to see how they work. It appears they decide what works by seeing what works in practice. Remember when memorabilia was suddenly put in NL Versus AL? After about a month it was switched back to plain old memorabilia.
