Oh No!
We noticed that you’re on an outdated web browser that may compromise
your security as you shop online.
As of June 19, 2018 you will no longer be able to check out on eBay
with your current browser.
Update to the latest version now so you can continue
to check out safely and securely.
Why must we continually put up with this!
Meh, not likely to do anything. Just make sure that at least Edit >
Preferences > Advanced > HTTP Networking > Advertise Firefox
Compatibility is enabled. Or just do:

I'm using FRG's build of SM 2.53 and eBay hasn't complained to me
about anything.
But be aware that even with the "Advertise Firefox" setting set, some
sites still act up. Seems some now only work if Firefox is the only
Browser mentioned so kick up a stink if SeaMonkey and Firefox are
mentioned .... or if Firefox and SeaMonkey are mentioned.
Some, hereabouts, have suggested creating a UserAgent pref that would
apply to the specific, troublesome, site.
I don't think it will completely not load. I mean, come on. Do you know
how many people that would affect? It's like pointing a gun in someone's
face and saying they *have* to use this browser or else. Doesn't work
that way. They'll lose money and issue a mea culpa.
