I think all here in Europe trying the new Ebay search esperience Crying or Very sad (a very shit esperience !)
now in Germany, Italy and UK we can't opt put this new search and return at the old very usefull system
but not all is lost, with this link you will return at the old search, change the ebay.it with ebay.de or ebay.co.uk (or ebay.com when the opt out option will be deleted also in USA)

nb.
some days ago ebay announced a reduces workforce by 10%

you will redirect at the home page but you are opt out so if you start a new or a your saved search it start in the old style

Shit fertilizes... at least.

I opted out as soon as I could find the option. It simply sucks, what was in the man's head who did it?

Yep really crap. I think it was invented by someone who never actually uses the search facility. And the old saying "if it aint broke don't fix it" really applies here.

oh Man!
I don't want to get stuck with a crummy searching tool.
How do I know if I'm using the old search or new?
How do I opt out to the old one?
Confused

It's really simple, if you are using the new "serach tool" you will not find what you want but find a lot of other things tha Ebay knows you need .....

That seems to be happening -- so, how can I return to the "old" search?

The stuff they think I need is a distraction when I'm trying to find chips, for example!

at the end of the page you can find the opt out option (at the moment), in Europe this option was deleted so the only way to return at the old kind of search is use the link above (you must change ebay.it with ebay.com or ebay.de, ecc.)
