eBay makes changes to Search and Listing results
eBay's plan to change the way that the ending time of a listing is displayed in Search and Listings results went into effect this past weekend.
Previously, the Search and Listings results show the ending time as "Ends PDT/PST", with the date and military time in the Pacific Time Zone that the listing will end. The new display will show "Time Left," with the amount of time left in the listing displayed in hours and minutes, rather than the specific hour of the day.

The new system sucks. I want to know the time the auction ends without jumping through hoops to find out. It was just fine as it was. Now, you have to think and add or subtract to figure it out. A compromise would be to have both listed. Then the idiots could see how much time left and the smart people could use the time.
JMHO

Someone a while back told us how to change from this new weird time remaining listing to the old way and I did it. I don't remember how at this moment (too late at night!).
I too prefer the old method. Just my own personal quirk, I guess. (I also like the OLD church hymns and hate the new moany groany Jesus is my boyfriend stuff. I am a reactionary for sure!)
