Default Whats the go with eBay now?

Yeah Yeah its not about an OzEcruisers, well it is read on:-

Usually when searching for stuff for my car on eBay i would look in Parts and Accessories by BRAND

There was a Heading something like EA EB ED EF EL................ so all the parts for those cars no matter what the title is you could find it in that section

Some sellers would not list what car it was for in the title so it was a win win with this parts by brand

Now I cant find the section parts by Brand............ is it still there or has it moved somewhere..........

Anyone have a linky to it?

They have screwed it up big time
heres how to feed the search engine to get what you want
in the search type (xk, xl, xm, xp) ford falcon

of course substitute the model you are looking for
Its not as good as it was but its better than trudging through pages of crud

Now if a seller does not put in the model of the car that the part is for we wont be able to find it and we all know there are some stupid sellers out there............

Like if they put just "Ford Starter Motor" we wont be able to find it unless we search all "Ford" items Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr !!!!!!!

I liked it where you could just work through your section on eBay for all parts for your car and sometimes you come across a part you werent even looking for but needed.

Still a bit weird though, why fix it when its not broke - IDIOTS !!!! :

I listed a heap of stuff when the EA,EB,ED,EF,EL catagory existed only to start stressing when I edited one of my items and then find that the catagory wasn't there anymore. Dumb.

I sent ebay an email about how stupid this new setup was and got an even more stupid reply so i think where stuck with it, what i cannot work out is why they have left things like car manuals (books) in catogories but put all car parts together.
It sucks!!!
