    Default Wanted system drives me potty

    Why is it so flipping difficult to set up a wanted? I can never remember where the darn thing lives, and if I do ever find it the terminology and questions are so topsy turvy that it's like working through the looking glass.

    I loathe it.

    I created a wanted within the last week - it took me ages to track down where... and now I've got to do another one and the hunt is on once more! What is it about the pesky things that makes them so utterly forgettable!?

    So somebody, please, remind me where I find the "add wanted" link? Gawd, I hope they're changing the system in the redesign!

    Calm down Kim, the new system will send you an e-mail every 7 days asking if you've found it yet

    Seriously though, go into "my ebid", look on the left at "summary", "buying", click on items I want, and go from there

    This is how I get to it...

    click on "My eBid"
    Under "Summary / Buying", click on "Item I Want"

    Might be more ways to get to it.

    Okay, I'd been there three times before asking, and I've just been back again and I still can't see the bally thing!

    I click on "items I want" and I get my existing wanted in a "list" (of one). I can't see anywhere to add another one.

    What am I missing?

    I see a box that let's you create a want list... but since I don't have any in there, maybe it's different for those that already have a "wanted" listed.

    So.... here's another way to get to it....

    At the top, click on the green "Want" tab (between the "Sell" and "My eBid" tabs. Scroll all the way to the bottom. Should be a "create" button there.

    Brilliant, thanks! The first version definitely seems to have gone awol on my screen, but that one's there bright and clear. Hurrah!

    Now, er... can anybody remember what book I was looking for?

    Oh yeah...

    Hello. I browsed the wanted adds and I'm not impressed at all. Alot of people have replied and posted to wanted requests. The original poster never responded in many case's. Pretty rude I thought. Why post if you don't follow up on it?
