Default eBay change-help!!

Maybe someone out there can help an old guy that lets change upset him!

Today when I wnet on eBay to search for items the format has changed and I now longer have the little box to check which would also search descriptions?

This happened about a month ago but then everything reverted to the old system. I can see an "opt out" option on this change. Does anyone know a way of adding the description search? I went home for lunch and my home system is still the old style?

Still looks the same for me, complete with "include description" check box, so I'm not sure what the issue is on your end. I do know that "eBay mobile" has a vastly different format that is practically unusable for me, but that just means that I don't search eBay on my phone, which isn't usually an issue.

There's a gear icon just right of the search box which will bring up the advanced search. The check box is in the section just below the section with what you're searching for.

Yeah, it's a nuisance and a lousy change. While everyone else is trying to get stuff done with as few clicks as possible since studies supposedly show that more clicks/steps for a purchase= people going somewhere else Ebay is adding more.
