Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By FORDDIESELPOWER: When going through the list of ads the ads take up more page space so its hard to quickly scan through a lot of them and you will have to go through more pages to see all of them. The list length got longer by adding extra info pictures and blank space. The old way was perfect very condensed, now it is hard to find things and the marketplace causes a lot of frustration. Also thumbnail pictures in the list are not needed because you cant see the detail anyway. We just need a text list like it was before. Also there is about 1/4 less views on new ee listings than the old ones A simple icon indicating pics included in ads was a perfect idea. No need for the preview pics. |

So, i may have missed it, but i understand i need to make an offer to leave feedback. Stupid and dumb, but whatever.
If i buy from a dealer, say i buy 10 mags and he's selling 100, in order to leave feedback, will the dealers ad get locked? |

I just tried copy/pasting an old EE WTB ad into the new EE. I keep getting the error “Invalid zip/postal code”, even though I input a correct ZIP. I’m using Safari on an iPhone 13.
Also, for a WTB, I’m not clear why I am required to input a price. Is this the maximum price I am willing to pay? I’d rather have the seller reach out with an offer without knowing what my price ceiling is. |

I recently sold my first item on the new EE. It went very smooth. I had two offers; the first was automatically rejected because it was below my stated minimum. The second was a "buy it now" type offer so I took it.
Feedback feature is kind of a pain until you learn how to use it. A word of warning to sellers: if you choose the CLOSED tab instead of the SOLD tab, you cannot leave or receive feedback. I will say one thing... if the new EE eliminates the sniping it will be well worth it. I'm talking about when a buyer posts "I'll take it" literally seconds after the ad is posted only to get beat out by someone who chose to PM the seller without posting in his ad. That happened to me a couple of times.  Seems petty I know but it still pisses me off.

The only reason there might be more traffic to the EE right now is because of the recent changes which are understandably causing complaints, people posting threads in GD, and driving people there to check it out who may not have frequented it before. There is undoubtably less items being posted. Once I close up a few deals I’m working and ads I have open, I’m likely going to hang it up. |

ARF's EE has been my favorite for a long time, so I'm a bit hesitant with the changes. I'm an old school forum classifieds junkie and have been using forum classifieds for a long time on various boards (from firearms to cars to photography) - and the current/old setup here at ARF has always been the easiest to use, offers a great feedback system, etc.
Having used the new system now for purchasing and currently listing an item, it's not bad. I still like the current/old system better, but I can appreciate the upgrade and the want to make it better. Couple questions: 1. Will the "My EE Listings" link be updated at some point and route to the "My Tools" or "Active Listings" page? 2. Is it possible to share post statistics with the seller (page/ad views, clicks, etc.)?? This would be nice to see as a seller. The only other question I have - and this is more for fellow EE users - does it seem like the volume of listings has gone down? I watch the EE pretty closely, and I feel like there are less new listings than before. |

I'll say this. Up till now, I've been doing my best to be constructive in my criticism and generally positive in my responses.
But if EE Mods are handing out warnings (or threatening to) about EE ads while we're still trying to sort out how this new format works, you are treading very close to a line I don't think needs to be crossed.  |

It makes sense if you have any reading comprehension and don't try to interject in the middle of something you aren't properly following; especially, as you note yourself, it doesn't make any sense. Maybe because you're not tracking. And fuck your "rule violation". Your shit ain't wired tight in that space and you might want to check with higher.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Cardplayer: Perfect. How about the fix multiple items? We there yet? Bigger fix involved for multiple item listings, but it is being worked on! Hopefully we will role out bumping adjustments soon and maybe the counter-offer system shortly afterwards. The goal for that is to help speed up the buyer/seller interactions without going to IM. Also will probably rename the offer button to be more inviting. To summarize the updated "offer" exchange: - Make offer, can include text comment to seller. - Seller can accept, reject, or counter-offer with optional comment to buyer. - If counter-offer is made, buyer can accept or reject. If the above ends in rejection, buyer can always make a new offer to buy the item. Comments will be included within the offer so neither side has to leave the EE to check IMs. |

How is all that any better than the old EE? If I’m online and buying or selling in the EE, I never leave the EE I just open another window to view IMs. This change makes no sense from a buyer or seller standpoint |

I sent my dude an IM (week ago now) asking him to complete the new EE transaction between us, as we were supposed to, but I don’t think he has any intention of doing that. Hence we won’t be able to leave feedback for each other.
So at this point, do I just close the ad? And chalk this one up to a lesson learned? |

Sorry if I missed this in the last ten pages of complaining, but I had a couple of requests:
- Can we see the total number of views and comments/posts as part of the ad display? I like seeing this metric, not only on my ads but also other ads to gauge the interest level or if something is overpriced. - Can we get the preview line feature when you hover over the ad? Like when you hover over any thread title and it gives you the first few lines of the post? I always thought that was helpful. "Change is not a four letter word, but often your reaction to it is." |

Regarding this rule:
Do not delete ad text, including prices, or subject lines. Doing so may result in a temporary suspension from the site. Leaving the subject lines and prices intact allows others to search items out and gauge current market value. Objectively, allowing this is straight up data mining. With all the expressed concern about transaction tracking and the site's statements that these concerns are unfounded, how is this even a rule? |
