No. The wantlist is like, intentionally shitty and useless. Want to exclude things over a certain price? Nah, GFY. Want to exclude items that ship from specific countries? Nope, go pound sand. Want to prioritize something? Nope. Email notification on some items that you're REALLY wanting vs just site notifications on others? Can't do nothin' for ya brother.

"Here's your list of everything you listed as wanting, but not like organized or useful in any way. Will be sure to email you once a day about it."

You forgot "dick sellers will relist their entire store everyday so your wantlist emails will be clogged with their crap"

there's just a lot to hate, it's easy for something to slip off the list by accident

THISSSS is infuriating. Chatting about this with @Joe Mac the other day. There is 1 London based shop that does it every. single. day.

And this wouldn't be that big of an issue if they allowed filtering of a wantlist. Country and price ranges at the bare minimum. It's not a wantlist otherwise.

Well its nice to see that it isn't just me being picky

I actually turned off my wantlist emails a while ago. It caused me more stress than satisfaction.

My solution has been to put in only things that are extremely rare and I can't afford when they come up anyway. That way it's a surprise curiosity when I actually get an email AND I never spend the money.

Kept getting alerts for changes to a release I have for sale. Seems like there is some drama surrounding the VMP Obi photos...

I wish I had that kind of time on my hands.

I mean, I'd still find something else to do with it, I just wish I had that kind of time!

I made an offer on a listing that was marked "Make An Offer" and the guy DELETED THE ENTIRE LISTING.

Sometimes they realize it sold elsewhere, not that that’s happened to me…

They are still going at it. I really just want to tell them to get a room because you could cut the sexual tension with a knife.

I was just called a condescending nerd....on a Mannheim Steamroller Christmas album of all things.

well it's a known fact that you are exactly that and you should be barred from contributing because of it.

this is the real takeaway from that edit page:

"Chip Davis lives in Omaha and is known to double park."

Thought to check my YTD orders and came in less than $10 shy of $600. Inflated my listings to hopefully not sell before end of year but if they do then it will be worth the headache of the IRS form, haha.

It's a bit weak, though. I much prefer "Database Thug"
