Remember they are not hampered as you are by your knowledge of the olden ways.

They will be worse off than we are because they have absolutely no idea what
it is capable of. At least we know what the wanted list can do. They
don't and what it's really doing is costing all of us sales.

*Thanks for the grammar correction*

  Remember when you learned how to use the “classic” one? Go the same way: try.
If you never try, you never learn.

The problem is this change was never needed. The old lists worked fine. We
all have tried to use the new list. We don't have time to take a course
on how to use a wanted list. It should be something simple. Remember, if we
cannot figure it out, imagine what it must be like for newcomers?

Thankfully the new list hasn't been removed. Let's keep it that way........please.......

"Whilst we agree with you about the classic v new look we also see problems leaving
it. People always want change whether it is broken or not. If classic is left
how long before people are clamouring for changes to that which means two code
bases to deal with and double the issues."

Problem is here that the old version works and the new version does not! Don't
you see, it doesn't matter about looking new as much as it matters that it
is functioning correctly. At the end of that day are people coming to BL to
be dazzled by flashy new websites or to buy Legos?

Please Please Please leave up the old version! I use it all the time and the
new version is nowhere near as useful. It doesn't even work at all! I have
tried to figure out why but I have no idea and I can't imagine other people
who are new to the site would be having an easier time using it either.

I have a suggestion. BrickLink should have all of the users vote on what they
think should be done. It's just my opinion, but I think you guys would be
surprised to see how many people really don't like the new version and want
to stick with the classic version.
