OK eBay gurus how do I get rid of these $#^*@% things

[Shirley U Geste]

I hate and detest the stupid suggestions that come up in the Selling Reminders section after I make a listing.

I get ones for Update title and Qualify for Fast 'N Free to increase sales and they drive me nuts.  

I am never going to qualify for Fast and Free and the Update title suggestions are totally laughable.


So, the question is, how in the heck do I get rid of them? Is there some setting somewhere I am missing? 

Do I just need to put a piece of duct tape on my screen over that area so I can't see them? 

I know I can move the Selling Reminders section down, but I like it to be at the top because I like to see how many items are ending that day, need to be shipped, etc.

I just want to be able to turn off the stupid ones I don't use and don't want.

I hate them too but I can't get rid of them either.

If you click on the link that shows the number of listings (i.e. Update title for 28 listings), it will bring those up in the bulk edit page.  Select them all and click the box at the top that says "Remove recommendations".

This, of course, will only solve the notifications for your current listings.  If there's a way to stop them from ever showing up, I'm not aware of it.

Thanks Terri, that's what I do now to get rid of them every time I list. 

I just wish there was away to get them from even showing up in the first place cause I never ever use their recommendations.

It just pisses me off that they waste time and money on this kind of programming when so many other things need to be fixed.

Hey, are those puppy paw prints behind you today? I like those!

[val2525]

Uh oh, does that mean you have new foster kitties, Shirley?

[Shirley U Geste]

ACCCK  No, no new kittens right now.  

Bitty is enough for me at the moment. She has so dang much energy that I get tired just looking at her. 

I haven't had one this age (9 weeks) in awhile and forgot how they are.   She is a whirling dervish and never stops except to fall over and sleep. 

I love the fluffy little thing to pieces but dang she wears me out.  


The paw prints seemed to be good for today since it's getting to be that time of year and the patter of little feet will be everywhere.  I've gone a bit nuts with the background and have 20 or so now.

We don't have cats, but we have 3 rescued dogs right now. It's been so long since we've had a puppy that I forgot how energetic they were until our last fur baby arrived. She's a German Shepherd and came to us at 14 months. I remember now when we had puppies that the vet told us, "They have 2 speeds: 'Running flat out' and 'out cold'!"   We named our yellow Lab "Hurricane Chloe" because she would run flat out around the table for 20 minutes straight and then just flop over and sleep.  I thought she had narcolepsy!

[Shirley U Geste]

I thought she had narcolepsy! 

LOL   Yep, the running and then dropping in mid stride and being asleep before they even hit the floor. 

I wish I could bottle that energy.

I think it's funny that my dogs could be out cold, snoring, hear the word biscuit and rise to attention in less than a second flat. It amazes me the way they wake up and have instant energy.
