Back in September, we introduced a refreshed, image-focused layout – a cleaner, more visual experience designed to help users browse listings faster and with less clutter.

Since then, we’ve received a lot of valuable feedback from our community.
Many visitors told us they loved the simpler, more visual interface – but also wished some listings included more detailed descriptions. With certain items, users wanted additional context, nuance, or specifics that images alone couldn’t fully reflect.
Today, we’re excited to introduce an update inspired directly by this feedback.
We’ve added an optional, expanded item description section that provides more detail without sacrificing the clean, visual layout.
How it works:
- On mobile:
Tap the description area to smoothly expand it. - On desktop:
Hover your cursor to reveal the extended content.
This keeps the page tidy, lightweight, and fast – but gives every user the option to dive deeper whenever they want.
For this enhanced view, the focus is placed on the seller’s own, user-created description.
This allows each listing to reflect the seller’s voice, unique details, and important context that standardized attributes may miss.
Of course, all standardized attributes and structured data still work as filters, helping users quickly narrow down searches by the specifics that matter most – but the descriptive text is now front-and-center when expanded.
Your feedback drives our product decisions.
Many users asked for:
- clearer descriptions for certain kinds of items
- additional context that photos alone couldn’t convey
- optional detail that doesn’t clutter the main layout
This update delivers all of that – giving you a flexible, more informative browsing experience.
We’ll continue refining layouts, descriptions, filters, and media presentation to help every visitor find what they’re looking for faster and more intuitively.
As always, your feedback is essential – keep it coming!
