    I always used the Thompson and Morgan site as a great reference site for seed types and availability. Now its had a facelift ! Has anyone tried the new T and M site ? It used to be laid out in alphabetical order , now everything seems to be in categories and not in any order that I can work out :scratch:. Does anyone else find the new layout an improvement ?

    I agree with you T&M new site is not as good as previous one. I found it all a bit confusing as well, was much better in alphabetical order not an improvement by any means.

    :scratch: Not a site I visit that often, but to me that is a nice site, but stupid not to offer the alphabetical search as well... :wink: Tell their customer Care if you are not impressed.. :wink:

    I used it last night for the first time and found the categories easy to navigate, but why no alphabetical listing I don't know!!

    They seem to have gone for sort orders of Lo-Hi and Hi-Lo price, and Bestsellers. Looking through a large category with many pages, such as Annuals, makes it hard to choose a specific variety of, say, Antirrhinums if they are scattered through all the pages ...

    They should have bought a decent eCommerce package - like the one we produce!
