So, I reported this error a long time ago, but eBay had failed to put it on known technical issues.
Issue: Add an item to a one or more custom watchlists. Then delete item from main watchlist. It INCORRECTLY removes it from ALL watchlist, thus rendering the custom watchlist useless.
This used to work correctly. You would delete from your main list, and it would not delete from custom lists. This sounds crazy easy to fix.

This issue is over a year and a half old.

Unfortunately it's not an error; that's the crappy way it was programmed.
I encourage anybody affected by this to click the ? icon on the bottom right of most eBay pages and use the 'send feedback' link to report the problem to eBay. If more people report it will gain more attention when eBay sees how many users are unhappy with that function.
