Wow, it looks like they didn't even try to do any testing themselves so the users can give them all the free suggestions/testing. I cannot believe they can put out a product that how odd it looks when you have stacked up lines where there is 2 lines for one item trying to discern which goes with which. Hello put bars or shading in between and nice to put the checkbox line underneath the buyer id line!!!!

example of how it currently looks (where <>=checkbox):

Buyer id1(123)* $123.45
<>1951 Mickey Mantle PSA 10
Buyer id2 (234)* $99999.99
<>1989 Greg Jeffries PSA 1
Buyer id3 (345)* $500.00
<>1985 Clemens
Buyer id4 (678)* $0.01
<> 1991 Ron Tugnut

Should be:
-----------------------------------------------------

<>1951 Mickey Mantle PSA 10
Buyer id1(123)* $123.45

------------------------------------------------------

<>1989 Greg Jeffries PSA 1
Buyer id2 (234)* $99999.99

------------------------------------------------------

<>1985 Clemens
Buyer id3 (345)* $500.00

-------------------------------------------------------

<>1991 Ron Tugnut
Buyer id4 (678)* $0.01


I already spouted off to eBay that they need to try a little bit at least.

    I'm a creature of habit and did not venture over into the beta test. Looks like I made the right move. You can change right back, though.

    Dirty Harry - I tried it for a couple of days. Did not like it and yes you can change back if you want to.

    Didn't know I had pull. They changed it this afternoon to separation bars and shading.

    Good job Chris ! Did your '66 Yaz get what you were hoping for? My snipe wasn't triggered as it was above my max bid.

    Hi Dave,

    It was a fair price. The new ebay 2.0 sellers beta also lets the seller see how many are watchers. I never realized how many people keep track of these things. The Yaz had 18 watchers so my eyes got big. lol. Thanks for trying for it.

    Hey here's my Yaz inventory in case you need anything: I have a '68 that is a high end 8 I'll be putting out there Thursday. If you want it b4 I throw it out there, let me know. Whomever buys it unknowingly will get a throw in heartbreaking '70 Yaz that was also high end 8 until I noticed what looks like was a small print defect bubble that looks to have been nicked off by the factory in the center of the card. I have a handful of raw 75's that are probably average to lo end 8s based on below average centering and print marks. I'm going to get them slabbed in a month or so. Finally I have a nice '64 Topps large I need to get slabbed. Knowing PSA is rediculously tough, it's a 7 or 8 even though there's not much wrong with it.

    Best Regards!
