Thread: Date / Time last seen

  1. #1

    Default Date / Time last seen

    I think it may be an idea to put the date / time last seen on the users About Me page.

    As it currently stands, the date / time last seen can only be viewed when going into a sellers store - as not all sellers have stores and anyone wanting to know how often a seller checks in can't see this information - which should be visible - store or not.

    Leastways thats my thought for the day

    I think it is a good one. Probably wouldn't hurt to have it on each listing.

    I like that idea! This way a person can "see" if they're dealing with a dump-n-run seller, eh? Brilliant!

    That was my thoughts too. I've been doing a fair bit of browsing and buying and have in my travels come accross sellers without stores and have been frustrated cos I don't know when they last checked their stores (or logged in). Try as I might, there is no means to check the last seen if the seller doesn't ahve a store and not all sellers have stores - its a loop hole that all 'dump and run' sellers can exploit, and buyers can call into

    Excellent idea. I didn't realize you could see it in a store!!!! I thought you had to find the Geni, rub the bottle, and click on the person's name or something....................couldn't always seem to make it work. I like the idea of it being on the about me page.
    Ta-Ta for now!

    Gazza, what's your opinion? I think in the long run it can only enhance the site and make it even better than it already is....!!

    Having asked a question of a seller who has an enormous number of books all at £99.99 (which may explain a lack of sales) and received no answer... and I REALLY want one book if the price is sensible... I agree with this idea.

    I also think this is a great idea, however..........i visit the site at least twice a day and occasionally it states i have not been in for 2 days. i know 2 days is nothing to worry about, but would worry slightly about glitches, then showing absent for 2 years. i had an item a while back that overnight had the number of lookers jump from 5 to over 1700, so, would hope that time would be accurate. with this on all sellers i,m sure we may have problems now and again, but as i said i do think its basically a good idea.

    I wonder if it is the same seller I asked re the book price. And not had a reply (hope it's not the same book)
