Well, that was frustrating.
The first girl swore blind that this was how it always worked. She sounded barely 17, and my saying that, 'once one had chosen ones category from the drop down menu to the right of the search box, one was permitted to Stay in that category - and this was how it had worked for the last 15 years', probably didn't register.
So then I moved on to a supervisor person, who did understand the problem and promised to send my feedback, back up the chain. Who knows whether it will or not. My point to her being that if I wanted to stay within Film Memorabilia, or its US or French cousin, to look for photographs, I didn't then want to see results for Kawasaki motorcycles or air filters.
Ah yes, she said. Very understandable.
And then I said, that if ebay didn't want to change this functionality back, then they have effectively rendered redundant the drop down menu altogether, because it is now forever ignored.
Ah, I see, she said.
Anyway. If this is how you are all seeing it, maybe something will get sorted. For now though, I can't be arsed to search for anything on ebay.
