evilbay's subcategories have been significantly out of whack for a while. From the list there were lots of redundancies & this was not well organized to reflect the limited number of toy lines. They charged an extra 10 cents to list in each additional category, so they probably had some incentive for redundancies.

The new system moves to the opposite extreme. The new list of categories is too short. Signal-to-noise ratio will go down on searches. Instead of consolidating so extremely, they should at least continue to sort by "universe."

Currently, far too few sellers complete "Item Specifics," and the auto-populated options on drop-down menus leave much to be desired. They almost never include accurate descriptors by default.
