Just tested creating a new promotion.   The eBay suggested (for optimum exposure) ad rates are getting higher and higher with each passing day.

I don't use PLs and certainly don't need another useless heading on the Seller Hub page...

Just another "tool" I don't need/won't use/will never click on....

Gone are the days of K.I.S.S.

To me just another tool with built in defaults. If they are going to dump revised versions of new tools let us test drive them first so we can confirm the XYZ123 built in glitches and they can fix before it is FULLY rolled out. From my understanding there were sellers that were unable to add to already created promos and a flaw in trying to manually enter rates under 5%. Enter 4.1 system would default 41 %. There were tickets open. Unsure if those flaws were created. Begs the question do they test prior to rollout?

 

The previous tool was not perfect but I had it finally mostly almost partially figured out. Now back to square one!!! Yayyy...Not!!!!

 

Regarding the heading. I think someone said you could remove from your seller page but not positive. That could have been for some other recently added dribble.
