What do you think of eBay's "New Look" Item Pages?

.. from today, all buyers and sellers will be presented with the new Item Description Page.

What do you think of the "New Look" pages?

I like the better photos and the layout of the seller details on the right.

I don't like the tabs - why put Postage and Payments on a separate page? From the listings I've looked at over the last couple of weeks most sellers put these details in the Description section anyway.

As a buyer, I like the idea of a 'Related Items' tab but I don't imagine many sellers would like it. Seems some of the 'Related Items' links that I've looked at have only their own items, others have a mix of their own items and other sellers and some have none of their own items, all other sellers! Why would you want a clickable link directly to another seller's similar item on your listing?

An example: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Infinity-Coffee-Table-Brand-New-Design-RRP-1200_W0QQitemZ180400332319QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAU_Living_Room_Furniture?hash=item2a00b29e1f&_trksid=p3911.c0.m14

Musta be new to you. It's been the dysfunctional norm for awhile now, here in enemy U.S. territory.

Nothing good shall come from this.

GET OUT while you can!
