  1. This is purely speculation but if I had to guess part of the reason for the new site design is to take better advantage of the eBay Affiliate Program.  The "Live" links next to specific title, issue, and grade of a book take you to a for sale listing for a similar book.  These links don't always direct you to eBay but when they do this is good for the site.  If you buy anything on eBay within 24 hours of clicking this link George collects a referral fee from eBay.  With the new site these links are mixed into the data.  With the old site they were all above the data.  Easily scrolled past to get the the real reason we use the site.    

  2. Some times I have to scratch my head at some of the excuses that I receive from bidders/buyers who want to cancel eBay orders.  

    I just received the following message from a buyer who purchased at auction a New Mutants 87 VF 7.5 2nd Print that hammered at over $12. 

    "Apologies but this was unauthorized by someone who had access to the account. Apologies again"

    Curious. ¬¬

    Let the venting session begin!
