Bonanzle Changes Search Results Page

More changes are on the way.. Well are already being shown to "searchers' on Bonanzle

The old search results page was cluttered and often made it close to impossible to locate your favorite seller. Not to mention items that you might want. 

The page has been cleaned up as well as changing the way the search works to locate a favorite seller.

Is that cool or what...

Here is what the "old" page looked like



And the new page looks much cleaner..



















And here is what happens when you search for a seller now! How totally cool.
