As previously announced, eBay will soon be changing the configuration of the View Item page. To help sellers avoid potential problems with their item description, template, or layout, they have provided a preview of the new View Item page. The preview link is available at the top of the current View Item page and can be utilized at this time. See screenshot:
We encourage you to use this link to preview items listed with Vendio templates. We will be testing the majority of our templates to ensure that the formatting is compatible with eBay's updated page, but we may not be able to thoroughly test all templates. If you notice any formatting problems with a template you are using, please notify us by going to Help -> Email, and be sure to specify which template you are having trouble with.

I do not have that choice available so can't check to see if my template is O.K. but thank you for the heads up anyway.

That view of a seller's own items has been available for some time. However, you can't use it to see other sellers' items (as far as I know) and the "related items" tab is disabled. Is this what you are seeing?
I have heard that one version has PPC advertising on either the left or right side of the item page and that the humongous version we are seeing will actually be about 700 pixels wide. Are our templates going to be automatically resized by eBay? What about images that exceed 700 pixels?
This new version takes away the left hand navigation bar. Many sellers are putting a navigation bar right in their listings - any plans to add something like this to the Vendio templates?
