Saved sellers page trashed

[davidninetynine]

Sometime in the last few weeks, ebay seem to have messed up my "saved sellers" page. All my added notes have disappeared, and if I add a new one it fails to show up.

I relied on those notes to tell me why I had saved the sellers and what they were likely to be offering, and now it's just a random list of ebay user names of no use to me at all.

I can't see any option button to show or hide the notes. Any ideas?

Otherwise it ooks like that's 112 sellers who won't be getting any more of my custom...

Hi davidninetynine.

On the new "Saved sellers" page there's a drop-down menu for each saved seller to the right of the little blue heart, which shows as a vertical line of three dots. Click on that and the last option displayed is "Add note to self".

Have you tried clicking on that? Unfortunately if there's nothing there I'd hazard a guess that eBay didn't port any previously-saved notes when the new page was introduced.

Nope you haven't messed up,   and I forgot to bring this up with our Community managers which I will do now.

I too, checking a few days ago have lost ALL my notes,  so now,  I have a long list of saved sellers,  for different reasons,  and I cannot tell one from the other now,  and like you , many will lose my custom.

Any info team as to why the 'notes' on Saved sellers have disappeared.  No one now knows whether this was a member to keep,   to buy from again,   or one to avoid !

Yes, that facility is still there, but the problem is that all the notes I have added in the past have vanished. And trying to add a new one via that menu doesn't work either.

I'm sure the notes were still there after the page layout was changed, something else must have happened very recently.

I would stand well clear of the "Saved Sellers" page for now - the addition of notes only looks like it works until you refresh the page ... at which point the data goes away.    It would be nice to know which bits of the system are 'in flux' to save wasted effort.

New Saved Feed is utterly useless. It is a substantial insult to longstanding E bayers who have crafted combined searches over many years to bring difficult to find and misnamed items to their attention.
Sponsored sellers are a waste of time, multiple repeats of the same item are a waste of time.
I will now switch to other platforms.
I would not bother to sell old artifacts from house clearances, as you the sellers will not get the high prices from a competitive auction.
That's it in a nutshell from a long time, high user of E bay purchaser.
