I agree with Elench - a sales counter would be more use to the site as a whole.

Madelaine
4 shops for Cats Protection & Prospect Hospice
My Postcard Shop
BK Stamps for Philatelic listings
& Yarnalong for craft patterns
and
Lotzabitz -anything that doesn't belong in one of the other shops.
In my opinion, if there is spare time and money, it would be far, far more worthwhile to add a Transaction Counter to show that sellers with little or no FB have succesfully completed sales. It would also help to counter ebids detractors who continue say that "Nothing ever sells here" and get away with doing so because of low numbers of buyers leaving FB.[/QUOTE]
I agree totally with Elench not many buyers leave feedback but like other things we will just have to go on living in hope!!!

A few more things could use some work before a Watch count etc are added, Front page comments are from 2009 and before, Seller lifetime offer needs to be extended to at least 1 week not 24 hours which give no one a real feel of the site, Import still isn't working for some and some form of advertising is a must IMO although it may be to late now and more payments options really are important. Feedback has never been good on any site, eBay gets maybe 30-40% fb from buyers if your lucky. I am seeing sales more often although few in numbers it does seem like the site is seeing more action
BorderBargains said it: "Seller lifetime offer needs to be extended to at least 1 week not 24 hours which give no one a real feel of the site".
That, to me, is more important than anything else, and, my wish would be to eliminate feedback altogether, such a waste of time as most of my buyers don't bother leaving FB.
An approach adopted by some other marketplaces (HipStamp for instance) has been to automatically place positive feedback if a buyer hasn't left seller feedback within 48 days or so.

Good point, Vinted do this
Maybe a little auto system that sends the buyer a message asking them to leave feedback then lets them know a generated feedback will happen, If the buyer has no issues they will let the auto system leave feedback. There's more important things right now though, lets make this the go to site one day!!!
Agree that it would be luxury at the expense of other 'much needed' improvements ... I am not bothered necessarily to know if someone is watching any of my listings.
As a seller, naturally, I am more interested in sales and transactions that occur.
I fully agree with the Watch List. I find it indispensable in gauging my probabilities of success. If I have many watches I know it will likely sell and more than likely an auction war may occur. If no watches are there, I take it as a message that my price is too high or something else is wrong with my listing.
