Thread: Classified section!

My opinion only.I do not like the new clasified section.Took all the woww out of the BST.

We seem to be in the minority but I agree. I like seeing everything listed in one line. Much easier the old way.

My wife will enjoy the new format Since it changed, I have probably only looked at it a couple of times. The other format, I checked a couple of times a day. Should save me some money

+ Another.... It's seems too disconnected from the rest of the forum....and it's kind of a pain to browse through...Pictures are tiny

I find myself looking at the sale threads elsewhere (other forums) because they are easier to read and have bigger pictures...

Just my opinion, but I like the old format better too......

If it had full sized images I'd like it a lot more. Other than that, it will just take time to get used to and work out some bugs. Like having Privates Messages work seemlessly between the two.

But yeah, the images are a problem for sure. There's no zing or wow, and if the poster doesn't post links to larger images, I'd certainly have to contact them for better images before buying the razor.

There is no way to get any impression of condition on the razor or the intricacy of any scale work or etchings, engravings and so on with the images we have now.

I beg to differ. Technically, the new classifieds section offers all functions that BST used to have. In addition, you get a much nicer overview, the ability to sort your finds (WIBNI sold items were moved to another area, or at least a functionality were added to hide them on demand?), and a more uniform display of an item's features.

The only woww I am currently missing is discussions around items. May have something to do with the interface. The "User Options" sections is somewhate counter-intuitive (YMMV): icons that don't tell the full story behind them, and no text.

My guess: Give it two weeks to dial in, and you won't want to look back again.

At the bottom of most pictures there is a 'supersize' button (on my desktop it shows as almost white on white so is very difficult to see, but it is there). This will open a new window with a larger picture.

I like it tbh
