    strangly I was impressed by the new lighter layout and opening visual when I first got to the new site.

    I think the old site was beautiful and fluid but it definitely had problems when it came to actually navigating and buying products.

    unfortunately this new site hasn't solved some of the core issues like the ability to bookmark products... very important. also, why use flash at all if it's there's no movement and "flashyness"?

    the product photography is pretty bad... you can tell the designers didn't care about the product photography. I can barely make out what that $5700 cell phone looks like... PC users will see an even darker image.

    I give this site a C- at best.

    Maybe the old site was harder to navigate, but it was a site that branded barneys as a high class establishment and attracted lots of attention. is it archived somewhere?
