-Agreed.... have you noticed they constantly like to change and muck it up when its perfectly ok ? :mad:
Shame 'they' dont notice though.
Is anyone here a Powerseller ?
If so, they can email eBay for a human (sic) response.

-I despair of eBay ever getting the aviation stuff into one, easy-to-access category.
It's a real ball-ache having to choose which category to put some of my stuff in and, because there are so many categories which might contain aeronautica, it would take a day to trawl thru it all as a bidder. The result is you stand to lose sales and purchases, in equal measure!
It's a crock of er........and don't get me started on paypal!

-Very frustrating sorting through car bits and pieces to get to what you want. Reminds me of Popham Aerojumble!

-Firstly, thanks TT for the heads up, having been in the lake district for a week, I would have struggled to find where they had put it!
However, I have to say that this should make life easier for us all - If you have an aircraft part, then put it in aircraft parts (subcategory - easily searchable). If its anything else, put it in Collectables/Transportation/Aeronautica
It actually reduces the number of categories that one has to search through - makes my life easier!
Hmm, Ebid - just how long is a company which doesnt charge for its services going to last.... and they have very, very few items compared to Ebay!

-Yes, but Aircraft Parts already existed as a sub-category anyway, within Everything Else>Aviation. There were also sub-categories for >Pilots Gear and >Other Aviation Items, so what's happened to them?
And besides >Transportation>Aeronautica, much aircraft/aviation related stuff turns up elsewhere.
Have a wander thru Collectables>Militaria> and all it's many, many sub-categories, and you'll find loads of stuff, including aircraft parts which aren't listed in >Aircraft Parts!
The trouble is, if you're just surfing for interesting items, rather than searching for a particular piece, it will take you all day to wade thru it all.
Got to agree about Ebid, though, which is a shame, as Ebay needs some proper competition.

-Your forgetting one important factor people. At the end of the day its eBay, the have a knack for screwing things up.

-Alan,
Yes, I know what you mean, but I have now decided that if you want to sell me something, it is your responsibility to list it in the right place! I stopped looking in Militaria, as it was starting to take too long every day.
So, now I will look in Aircraft Parts, and Aeronautica, do a generic search on de Havilland, and that will be me. Anything falling outside that wont get bought!!

PS That said, I was alerted to a pair of Comet control columns in Sporting Goods, which I picked up for fifty quid...!
