I would appreciate help as to how to leave positive feedback for the buyers. My Market is not working. I can’t find my ads that have sold. Where might I find those?
Thanks.

I never had problems posting on the old format, but I've been trying to post an Avonds F-16 since this morning and I still can't get it to post.
Please just start over with a new system!!!!!!!!

EaglePilot2,
I think the secret to having a successful listing is that you have to go all the way through to the pricing page. Once there, scroll down to the box at the bottom of the page. Click on the box: “Skip this step”. Every time that I have listed and done this, it automatically shows you your active listing. Also NEVER hit the refresh button on your browser. It takes you back to the beginning. But what you have typed in the listing body description is auto saved. Click on the “restore”. What has been written is there, but not other details of the listing, like title, price, etc.
I’m just trying to make the best of it. I’m having the best luck using an iPhone. Haven’t really tried the pc.

It was my first post after they changed and I've really been dreading it. I will say, I was pleased that you can post more than one picture even if you're not a paid seller. I suppose it'll just take some getting used to.

Yeah, this week was my first time too. For jets, it’s still the best discussion forums. We all just have to realize that RCU was sold, I may be wrong on this, but the new owners are not hobby people, just computer nerds and in it for the advertisement money. I’ve been registered since 2002, so back at the beginning. Initially, the Market Place was a forum based sales platform. It took at least 5 years to turn it into what we became accustomed. I politely asked for some changes that I ran across during my listings. IBJoel said he would ask tech to make the improvements. *****ing about it isn’t going to improve it. Constructive criticism will hopefully work. The owners don’t want their investment to fail, so trying to be helpful. When they bought it, I’m sure that the programming was a mess. When I help a gas or jet student with their radio and can’t figure out how the programming and mixes work from too many others adjusting the radio. I do a reset and start over. They did too, not realizing the computer asset to us.
These other guys just need to chill. And repeat this to themselves.
Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
and the Wisdom to know the difference.
And I am not religious, but love that poem.

Feedback
IBobby;
I sold some stuff this week for the first time since the changes. I’m trying to figure out how to leave positive feedback for the buyers. It used to be done from “My Market “ accessed through “My Gallery “, as pictures of my profile. Any of the My Market links go to failed pages. Can I leave feedback? And how is it accomplished? I can’t find the list of what I have for sale and/or sold. From those listings, there were links that the only two parties could contribute. I think that you got rid of the access for anyone to leave a feedback for anyone who they didn’t even have a transaction. So, if you can explain how I can leave my buyers a feedback? If it can’t be accomplished at this time, maybe you can make the transactions covered retroactive when you have it running. Like the guys have said, we buy jets and other expensive items that cost thousands from people that we have never met. Our only trust to send thousands without personally seeing the item, other then pictures, is the feedback, or lack of it. I’ve wanted some items really bad, but don’t buy it because of poor feedback.

Ok, I can get that far. Where I am now having issues it finding “Deal URL” . When on a phone, you have to change pages too often to find what you are looking for to leave the feedback. It would be great to go to a list of our current ads. What is current, what is sold, not sold, expired, etc. On those ads that have sold, you should be able to click on a link to leave feedback and not have to go looking for the url to add to the feedback. Right now, I can’t complete the feedback due to the url. I went to the ad, but at the top address it only says rcuniverse.com. I guess what I am trying to suggest, instead of going to the person’s name to leave the feedback, we should be able to go to the item’s ad and leave the feedback from there. Right now there’s too much hunting for links. Thanks

I'll check why your iTrader is not showing it.
