Like the new look to audiogon ?


Noticed this morning that a change happened on the site.   

If you go the category section and click on Amps / Solid State,  you then see all the thumbnails of the amps that are for sale.          Its a little confusing as first you see the BOOSTED LISTINGS, then after that is the FEATURED LISTINGS.....then you see ALL THE SOLID STATE LISTINGS. 

Gone is the category view of the listings......

This new look for the classifieds is terrible. It’s called the ’gallery’ style. And it’s a poorly done version of it. Craigslist offers a button for choosing which style to view: list, thumbnail or gallery. Far superior!

This new layout totally misses the point of ’browsing’. Previously, if a potential buyer was searching for a specific product, they might stumble upon something else for sale by the same manufacturer.  I've purchased many things that way.  Now, it's gone.
There is a very simple fix. It should take one minute by the web developer. Just change the default setting in the code to automatically display the ’classic’ view first. In turn, the ’grid’ view becomes optional. In other words, it will be the reverse of the current functionality.

It appears that after spending all that money on the new skin, Audiogon still wishes to present a ’fresh’ look. But, Ebay seems to be doing okay with the same classic view that it’s had forever.
