Well Vendio, you finally did it, made the site so complicated that it resembles eBay`s mess! I would estimate you will lose 1/2 of your users shortly. I use Webtv, I know you always say you don`t support this platform, but I have been quite happy listing on your site, have had to find many workarounds as you have made minor changes. I loved the simplicity of the site before the recent (update-HA) Now the scheduling feature is non-functioning, image uploads are time-consuming & overly complex, create listing page is a mess, calendar icon brings up a confusing series of choices-which to change first, date, month, time-do it wrong & you have to start all over again, or it takes you back to upload image? Who really needs to schedule auctions 10 yrs. in advance? If you have really gotten feedback requesting these features, why have these boards been buzzing with unhappy listers? It seems like many of these changes have been made just to see if you can. When eBay changed everything, realized they screwed up, they put a lot of things back to the previous format-get the hint? I`ve been a loyal Auction Watch-Vendio lister since 99, hate to leave, not sure where to go, but I don`t see any options unless I can have access to all the listing features. Mike

While I am sympathetic to your problems Mike, I have to say that I strongly disagree!
I absolutely LOVE the new enhancements!! The listing scheduler and the fabulous new image attachment system have made my life SO MUCH easier!!! It is taking me almost HALF the time to list my 50 auctions/day..I never realized how long I waited for images to attach before and trying to catch the right time (especially working in the am for a pm listing) from the pull-down menu was a trial at times and now all I have to do is type in the right time!
I think the board is buzzing because 1) people don't like change 2) there were some "bugs" when both features were introduced that had to be worked out.
I know this suggestion is something you might not want to hear, but perhaps you should get rid of Web-TV and not Vendio. I'll bet there will be more and more programs that are not compatible with Web-TV in the future.
I am not always a Vendio cheerleader (I am still waiting for a bulk relisting feature to change format to stores) but I have to say that I am thrilled with these new changes!!
