new 'new' view on ebay

I know there are quite a few versions of the ebay 'skin' out there, both my private accounts and my business accounts all have different versions. However I signed in this morning to one of my rarely used private accounts and it's changed again and I've never seen anything so horrible, it has to be the worst version yet.
For a start it's huge and 'in your face' turning the screen size down doesn't help as it just sits in the middle of the screen, each listing (and thankfully there are only a handful) takes up about a third of the screen and you have to scroll left and right just to see all the information and to even see whether you have any bids. Worst of all the purchase side of things is hidden away and takes some finding (I have made a couple of purchases on this account).
They have asked me for feedback and I have told them it is the worst set up I've ever seen, and I thought the seller hub one was bad to start with.
One of the reasons for posting this apart from having a moan was to remind myself, and others that there is no 'one view' on ebay now, so sometimes when people ask how they do something they may well not have the same screen as others. If newbies say they can't see an action, or link they are probably right!

i dont know if it is the same but sometimes when you view a listing (usually from google straight to one listing) you get a sort of summary, with buttons for "View Details", "View Description" - so painful. I want to see the details about that item, there is only one item being displayed so why not just display the details.....0
