Ebay drops sport specific subcategories for trading cards?!?!

Wow, I thought I had accidentally did something. Now, you still get modern T206 mixed in with vintage, even when you pick the years. & there's no memory of what you selected.

Bad move by Ebay..

Another instance of eBay not "leaving well enough alone."

They *probably* figure this will lead to more sales. Average customer will see things they ordinarily wouldn't have and, as a result, make impulse purchases. I guess it makes sense on a basic level, though I doubt many Net54 members would spontaneously begin collecting Topps 206, for example.

They're messing with more categories than just sports cards. I have hundreds of 45 RPM records listed on eBay. Earlier today, I was prompted to enter item specifics that will soon be required. Luckily, I learned how to bulk edit, so I could update all the listings at once.

Absolutely horrible. All my searches are dominated by football cards now.

Like looking for your clothing size at a Ross Store...

I cannot remember ONE instance where eBay made a change that I liked over the years. Not ONE. Everything they do is for the worse.
