Classic View on eBay

Hi all

Been an eBay biz seller for quite some time and for the life of me can't figure out how to revert to classic view on main selling page. I really do not like the new selling page, as others have mentioned.  Automatically occurred yesterday and checked many a forum and even contacted eBay who have said it can't be reverted.

I've seen some people who have been able to do it but can't find anyway possible myself. 

Any ideas? TIA.

    Can't help with having it changed back but Seller Hub is superior IMHO, once you get used to the new layout it's very straightforward.

    I think some people can switch back once, but some can't switch back at all and eventually we will all be on one form or another of the dashboard,

    Thanks guys.

    Yeah, knew it was coming (a bit like managed payments) but wish we had the option.

    As lunny says, will take a bit of getting used to.

    I was changed to the new layout two days ago. There used to be an option to go back to 'classic view' but I can't see it anywhere so now have to come to terms with the new layout.

    It looks OK for business sellers but as a small time private seller I find there is far too much information on the pages. Will just have to get used to it but I'm thankful I've done 90% of my decluttering and more options are coming along all the time

    I like the seller hub.

    DH had it on his business account for ages before I had the option to switch to it on my private account and I was so annoyed that I couldn't have it. I find the information on it interesting but I'm a bit of a data/stats lover anyway. It's more user-friendly than the classic view as you can do multiple relistings/end multiple listings very quickly, rather than having to do them one at a time.

    Question: Within the new ‘my eBay’ Is there a way you can change the order of the categories?

    I would like ‘Active selling’ at the top, but it is not, and I cannot see a way to move it like you could in the ‘old my eBay.

    Anyone know please?

    Hate it, hate it, hate it.
    What in God's Green Earth have they done ?

    I am a Small scale private seller -  and the previous set up served me fine.
    One click and I could see everything I had sold, been paid, posted, feedback received and sent
    Current listings - watchers, bidders, price etc
    Unsold items, and 
    Drafts ready to be listed

    Now......
    How many different requests and screens do I need to navigate to find this exact same set of info ?
    I have mega loads of stuff to sell - and found out tonight I now have a Selling Limit  - so ebay is not allowing me to relist anything!
    Anyone ever had that before?
    I have NEVER ever been told I had a selling limit before by ebay.
    Why would they want to impose one on me?
    Are they not in business to make a profit?
    Surely the more items I list, the more likely I am to sell more items, and ebay therefore rake in more commission/fees?
    So why impose a limit ?
