“New Homepage” 🙄

Anyone else get the abomination of the “New Homepage” in Seller Central? Why do they keep f@cking around with crap?

Not yet, and I haven’t gotten the giant tiles either. Yet. Ick.

Still got the current one, hope it lasts, I’m traveling the next few days, last thing I need is to explain remotely to other people how to navigate a new interface that I’m not familiar with

Yup, and I switched back to the old view.

Yes, though we run a popup blocker so don’t look at it often.

I particularly liked (not like) :face_vomiting: The up front and center “Returns and Refunds” don’t think the programmers got the memo.

All Returns and Refunds, at least for us are Refund at First Scan. (Things they think are Hazmat but are not and never will be are the exception. But that is another category of incompetency.) So we have nothing to do with it. Why are you bugging :beetle: me in my face to issue a refund when you do that for me, like it or not.

Unless you want us to refund before they get around to shipping it back? Since 50% never do, I ain’t doing it. Your toilet Amazon your job. My job is to raise prices to compensate for it and delight the (your) customer.

So that’s new.
My post was immediately hidden and I got a notification that it was flagged? Which it wasn’t because even if y’all wanted to, none of you have the ability to flag things faster than light.

Yeah, I’m turning off that function now.

Not your fault! I was playing with spam settings

Nah, I’m on to you. It’s because I violated the rules by revealing top secret Amazon communications!
You can’t repress me!

Yes, thank you and I understand, though our brands have not been hit with it.

We increase our prices on all our channels at the same time. So sad since, our direct customers, other eCommerce channel customers all pay the price for that. As in pay the price for Amazon high return rates.

The competition for many of our products that we manufacture right here in America, comes from China. Those items are sold at 30-80% less than what our sell price is. And that is fine with me. For some reason Amazon does not (yet) compare us to them.

Not exactly, as soon as I saw the flag I did what every red blooded American would do I clicked on the link provided to see what was hidden.

Reminded me of 4th grade. We were doing a tour of science projects, the teacher said “don’t touch anything!” I took the tour, and touched the first cool thing I saw. They sent me back to sit alone in the empty classroom. Things happen for a reason.

I also reverted back, but I guess we shouldn’t be surprised. Even though this version isn’t even that old.

You know that toggle to go back to the old version will eventually go away. :face_with_symbols_over_mouth:

I’m guessing this new format is keep the NEWS & FORUM tiles from jumping all around.
Now they will be locked on the right (maybe)

Maybe if we all keep talking about having all the important information on the main page they will design a page from 10 yrs ago. Any programmer they have won’t remember it. :wink:

I am endlessly amazed that with the money Amz has to put behind their tech, they put out the worst UI of any backend I’ve ever used. I would love to be one of the coders who just rakes in money to put out this crap.
