OT: Public Service Announcement

A few days ago, Ebay decided it would be brilliant to change the vintage clothing categories from decades based to maybe three eras based under womens and under both men's and women's vintage, have it sectioned out by items. So now, you have men's 1990's vest hobnobbing with men's 1790's waistcoats. 0_o? I doubt I have to explain to anyone here why this is a terrible idea. It's made it very difficult for me to search through items and some sellers have also gotten mad as well. If you have an ebay account, however, you can complain. I think if enough people complain, they might change it back (or else, everyone really will just move to etsy which is already happening).

Go to My Ebay, if you have an account.

Click the "Tell Us What You Think" link that is located right beneath the "Search" button.

The page that should come up, should look like the above.  In the "Tell Us More" explain that you want the vintage clothing categories to be by decade again for ease of browsing and shopping rather than the ridiculous vintage clothing by article that it is now.  Basically "Change it back the way it was!   Don't fix what wasn't broken!" type thing.

Hopefully, if enough of us complain, they'll listen.   If not, etsy will see a huge uptick in business.  Feel free to post this on other social media as well.

Edit:  I've had some minor luck with Twitter as well.  Just tweet to @askebay if you have a twitter account and tell them to change the vntg clothing categories back to decades, not clothing items.
