First thing every morning I used to look at new for sale postings over the last 24 hours. Not anymore, too much like hard work with the new format. Can we have the old format back, please!
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......

The new look is terrible and very difficult to use. Please give us back the option to see a LIST of components without pictures, sortable by price, date listed, etc. In the meantime, I will not be listing anything for sale on Audiogon, and I do not anticipate searching the new-look listings for possible purchases, either.

@lowrider57 Yes that was just a direct copy and paste of their email reply to me from this morning. Truly I could not make something as silly as that up! As you say it shows that they have no grasp as to the enormity of the unfolding situation and are going to attempt to just stick their head in the sand and wait till the ruckuss dies down. Unfortunately when they reappear they may just find themselves all on their own! |
This is how they ’move the cheese’, and all the mice start a protest and leave! The big plus is the other cheese places are way cheaper too! This place used to be the Big Cheese... but as of today, all the cheese looks wrong. At least the forums still work...ADDED: here is a link to Audio Asylum post on the 'new' Audiogon style' https://www.audioasylum.com/audio/general/messages/73/737579.html |
It's so obvious that the new search format is ALL about collecting more fees. It has nothing to do with change for the better. I have been a loyal member for 17 years and use the site almost daily to look for new gear and develop my system. The new search format is ill-conceived and a prime example of incompetency at its worst. For me the Audiogon site is now nonfunctional and I'm not going to waste my time trying to dig through pages of unrelated small images trying to find what used to take only a few seconds. I stuck with it through the take over in 2011 but now this new format will never be acceptable to me. The only solution is to can this mess and go back to the sensible text format. The only way this will happen is with money. I'm done buying and selling anything until this disaster is fixed. |
