The escape hatch button has been moved to the bottom RH side for 'log out'
watched listings seem to just vanish
The TM team keeps making changes for no reason but why?
oh well.....

If they keep mucking things about, then they'll lose punters sooner or later.
in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)

If I log on it opens at a very ancient listing of mine, that didn't sell that time round. Annoying. But TM these days is annoying.

I made a listing last night, and noticed they have changed the default Ping to an opt in so that is adefinite improvement in my books. The opt out was just plain sneaky. Be interesting to monitor this listing, I have the impression the buyer market has crashed, so we'll see if I get any interest.

I sold a couple of cameras recently - they weren't priced very high, and I only got one bid on each, so I think you're right about buyers, Hunni - wallets are closed at the moment.
I do have other cameras!

And the good thing about that is I get to win more, lol... Most recently a gorgeous book I have wanted for ages, offered back to me ten bucks under her list price, absolute score. Amazon have it for USD63, plus shipping so I'm delighted. Specially seeing I'm going to rip it to pieces and remake it lol...
Losing buyers has definite advantages!

Post mislaid a parcel to me and I emailed the seller about it with no respobse. So I posted neutral f/bk to get her attention, which worked. Lobg story short the parcel turned up and I tried to edit the feedback. The only way now is via desktop, but when I changed to desktop from mobile, that listing disappeared from my won items...
Weirdness. So I posted on community and asked staff to edit the feedback for me, and sure enough on the following Monday they emailed me to confirm and did it toot sweet.
But that doesn't solve the problem.
The new bits on the system make operating too hard. I will be very careful about future purchases, it is not as safe as it used to be. I don't blame farcebook, I think it's Temu. And I think not just TM will lose, our economy will suffer too as a result of the way every man and his wife is buying up the cheap stuff on Temu. It reminds me of the way The Warehouse killed local small business. I suspect Temu will kill the big boxes, in its turn.
Pity, because most of it is complete crap and just ends up in landfill. But hey, plastic clothes are cheap, and when they fall apart we can just buy more. We are getting the future we deserve.
