ebay hiding the description
Haven't seen a thread about this and its kind of a big deal for me and I'm sure alot of sellers if they decide to follow threw with it.
If you didn't notice on the 1st of July eBay started running site wide tests again where they would "hide" the description and you had to click to view it in its entirety. They selected a very small amount of seller test dummys in February and most reported negative effects (buyers not reading the description and leaving negatives and or opening cases)
Words from eBay business
"We want to improve and simplify the overall buying experience, and our goal is to have a consistent experience across all devices and screens. This is how buyers are currently viewing item descriptions on mobile devices today."
I spend time on my listing description and create it as if it was a business website in a way. I create my own logos and make it look as PROFESSIONAL as possible. Not to mention when they remove the description from automatically appearing they PICK what few words show in the description. For people selling used/vintage items this is VERY bad. When you sell used/vintage this is VERY bad because the description is VERY important and is 99% of time why cases/returns happen, when its not read.
No idea if they really implement this stupid idea but I know its because of course......AMAZON.
