Post ITT for emotional and mental support as you try to come to terms with and move past KEH's godawful website redesign that somehow makes everything ten times worse than it was.

We're here for you.

This is going to save me so much money.

The fact that I can't filter by lens mount is insane. Also, all the weird rear end poo poo like lens caps are harder to find.

If only because I can't find anything anymore. Why the gently caress are P67 and 645 poo poo all thrown together. How does that make any sense at all?

If anyone ever makes me a mod of E/N, I will make a rule that if you use the words "literally shaking", you need to provide video evidence that you were literally shaking.

My theory of KEH webdesigns mimicking Windows versions is strangely accurate. The old old website was ME, nothing loving worked at all and it was universally hated. The old website was XP, it wasn't great and search was a loving travesty but as long as you remebered where poo poo was it was cool. The new one is Vista, probably works alright but we'll never care because it's kinda slow and hella ugly. Please bear in mind this is from the perspective of a user not a CJ so keep your nerd poo poo out of my nerd theory nerds.

I hope to hell KEH doesn't store too much payment data because you know an "intrusion" for them would basically be calling them up on the phone and asking them to please remove the hard drive from their payment processing server and mail it to you so you can check for electron rot.

also you can't search by, say, all off-brand lenses for a particular lens mount and gently caress searching through pages of horseshit for a couple Sigma FD lenses

You can search for all off-brand lenses across every mount now, unlike before! I wonder if this would have been usable if KEH bothered to actually sort by lens mounts before?

Lies! I searched for pentax 67 and got everything wit the words "pentax" and "67". This new site is about as useful as a nerf vibrator!


Can I start to use their paper catalog or did they screw that up too?

Not sure I can cope, is hanging my self with a remote shutter release allowed?

Had to use Firefox instead of Chrome to complete my order.

Also, checking out via KEH Classic had a shipping cost of $12 with delivery middle of next week. New KEH had shipping at $8 with 2 day delivery.

Using the new KEH with Chrome, I could add things to my cart but it would be empty when I went to checkout. I switched to classic KEH and was able to get to checkout, where it showed shipping at $12 with delivery July 16. However, you can't actually check out via old KEH - when you get to a certain point it kicks you back out to new KEH and the order failed to complete.

I switched to Firefox and was able to get through the entire process via new KEH just fine. When it got to shipping, it was $4 cheaper and 4 days faster (July 11).

I haven't received my package yet but I assume it's going to be a crate filled with cracked Tiffen UV filters and a note that just reads "gently caress YOU."

It's been 5 days since "the change". I feel lost and alone, like a shipwrecked sailor floating in the moonlight. Unsure if that rapidly approaching splotch on the water is an oil slick or a shark looking for a snack. Why have you forsaken us KEH? Were we not good enough customers? Did we not buy enough BGN grade filters and old lovely tripods? I want to make one last order. Send me a Leica, Hitler's Bunker Edition, make sure the cyanide capsule is intact. Overnight priority please to area code 98115, money is no object.
