Formatting on ebay suddenly all wrong
All of a sudden, eBay is rendering on the current version of Firefox as if it were a very old version. The suggested item that are usually displayed with decent sized avatars/icons in a horizontal strip above and below the auction you want to view are suddenly huge and arranged in a single vertical column. Even the scroll arrows to move left & right through the seections are enormous and located at the top and bottom of the selections.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

This usually happens when CSS files are blocked.
If you use extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) that can block content (Adblock Plus, NoScript, DuckDuckGo PE, Disconnect, Ghostery, Privacy Badger, uBlock Origin) always make sure such extensions do not block content.
- make sure your extensions and filters are updated to the latest version

Thanks, but the problem went away just as mysteriously as it appeared. I'm on a dual boot 200 MacPro and I booted from the other hard drive/OS. When I came back to my normal OS, the problem went away.

Could have been a corrupt file that was removed.
Good to hear.
