Did you mean: 

Organize Saved Searches

I have over 150 saved searches.
I mostly use eBay for two things:

1. I collect obscure magazines on design, fashion, architecture, and industrial design, etc.

(I collect magazines the way some collect vinyl.)

2. I buy most of my clothes on eBay.

…and occasionally buy other stuff (electronics, whatever…).

 

A month or so ago, I think after updating my eBay app, I got an alert suggesting I "organize" my eBay searches into groups. I thought that was a great idea, but I was busy doing other stuff at that specific moment, and planned to go back and utilize this new feature later.

 

Now that I want to split my saved searches into:

   • Magazine Searches

   • Apparel Searches

   • Other

 

…I cannot for the life of me find that feature.
Did I imagine this, or possibly misunderstand the alert?

 

IF THERE IS such a feature to organize saved searches, someone please tell me how this is done. If I somehow misunderstood that alert, and IF THERE IS NOT such a feature, eBay should make it.

Organize Saved Searches

@aabulafia,

 

This is how I have created categories on my computer,  I do not use the App so it may not work the same.

 

On your summary page Just above Watch list There is an oval (all categories with the number of items in ( ). If you hover over that you should get an option to add a category, or you  may see directional (< >) clicking on that may open empty "ovals" that you can fill in with your own categories.  Then when you want to save to your watch list a drop down should appear asking which one you want to save an item to.  I would suggest sticking close to ebay's categories, then magazines for Ex. will automatically be saved in that list. 

Hope this works.
