Crap new layout being forced on us!

Hello go4ret. My comment has gone into pending mode. See attached. 

No thanks, the old site when it came to seeing items listed, seeing sold and unsold items is still 100000 times better than the new layout, but as usual you will not listen to the users, if it wasn't broken you don't fix it, Trademe seems to be one of the few sites who take something that is working fine and then break it.

go4ret. My Products is basically the old site, but turbo charged.

Rather than just dismissing it outright, have you actually looked at it? 

Amongst other things it still has unsold/sold in a very accessible format, like the old site, but better......  

Yes, I have looked at it.

Great! Is there anything in particular that didn't work for you?

There are a few of us on here who have a bit of knowledge around it. 

You mention the sold / unsold page you didn't like in the new format. 

My Products sold tab has a format very similar to the old website, with the addition of a few other nice features and filters. 

Too much to explain, my products to me is still way different to how the old site is in look and ease of use for current, sold and unsold listings.

As i said there was nothing wrong with the old layout as it did its job and it is a good design and everything is clear and easy to see etc. I guess some people try to justify their jobs (web designers) and change things for no reason other than to get a paycheck, you can say my products is the same, it isn't. I will leave it there.

Have a great day Callum you can only do what you can do. 

There used to be a free auction listing site called Easylister - it was streets ahead of my products. I don't know why Trade Me didn't use it as their listing tool. 

There is one called theglobe.nz that started on August, 2025. I don't know anything else about it.

go4ret - the changes are being made as the technology used to built the old system doesnt allow for newer and better features to be built on it. It wouldve been better for the site to be released in a final stage rather than with the bugs but thats how trademe normally upgrades things.

Unfortunately the old site is going/gone. You have 3 choices - bare with the new site with all the issues it has, use myproducts which is largely uneffected by the changes and has many more advantages, or just not use trademe

Thanks thesimplelife. I've added it to my list of working ones. The list of dead ones I keep is really long, and sad to look at. In some cases millions of $ were poured into them, still failed. 

Thanks for the comments people, hopefully one day something else comes along, until then I might have to get Facebook again just to sell things on there lol
