The new look of ebaymotors.com

[Justin Shelton <justinshelton@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Guys -

I suspect that most of you guys, like me, are on
ebaymotors.com every single day to scour shop for
parts, brochures, whatever.

This week a new design as given to the Ebaymotors.com
page which I do not like which I do not view as an
improvement in the least.  It now sorts cars by
manufacturer, then model that is most respresented on
Ebay.  It used to be that a manufacturer's models were
just listed in alphabetical order.  For Chevy, that
means that the list went something like this:

Avalanche
Biscayne
Cavalier
Corvair
etc.

With the new (certainly not improved) design, the
models are listed according to which one has the most
for sale!  So it's something like this:

Corvette (579)
Camaro (408)
Silverado (242)
Impala (201)
Chevelle (153)
Etc.

Perhaps Chevy isn't the best example to use with the
AMC crowd, but you get my drift.

I have complained to Ebay already, telling them that
folks who are car shopping do not normally search for
cars according to popularity.  I have encouraged them
to return to the days of simply listing their models
in alpha order.  I got a nice reply from some guy - it
was not automated - saying I had a point.

I also asked for a Hudson category, pointing out that
if they can freakin' list Peugeot in it's own
category, then create an all-Hudson listing, just
exists for Nash or AMC.

Anyway, I'm thinking that maybe Ebay will make some
changes if they hear from enough of us.

Best,

Justin
