Thanks to all of you who took the time to respond to the proposed Collectibles category changes. Thousands of emails were received and reviewed and the vast majority of responses were supportive of the proposed changes. Hundreds of suggestions were taken into consideration in creating these revisions to the original proposal.

Based on your input, we are adding more categories to Pop Culture. Modifications made since the original posting of this proposal are highlighted in #FFFF99.

The revised category structure is scheduled to roll out in April 2001. However, ongoing input is always welcome, as changes to the Collectibles categories will continue on a monthly basis. Your input is needed to make these monthly changes effective. Please send your input on this group of categories to popcultr@eBay.com.

Category numbers for existing categories are shown in brackets next to the category name. To view a list of all current categories with category numbers, click here.

Thank you for your continued support of eBay. Your efforts help make eBay Collectibles the best area it can be.
