There's more than one kind of poor design. These days there's quite a lot of bad design that looks slicker than something in the geocities era, but is worse in terms of how well it meets its purpose. I agree with idk1; however pretty this page is, it's terribly designed as a product page. I am less likely to buy the product after seeing the page than before. And reading through the comments, that's true for many people. Is it pretty? Yes. But a pretty thing that harms your purpose is worse designed than an ugly thing that serves it.
