What the Heck??? Trying to list a bracelet in this Stupid Idiotic Item Specific Site

And it won't list because it has too many item specifics.   I didn't put them there.   I didn't ask forty stupid idiot quetions that have absolutely nothing to do with what i'm selling.

 

And now I'm  supposed to do what exactly?

I'm  listing enamel bangles and there has to be thirty questions about the stone.  IT DOESN'T HAVE ANY $$$%^&% STONES!   Tomorrow is another day to ask  eBay to please try to make the item specifics more intuative.  I realize that's not a word used here much, but you've got to be kidding.   if I say No Stones, it shouldn't ask anymore.

 

I don't know how jewelry sellers stand it.


Please.  No.  When they tried to make it intuitive & 'smart' in clothing, for most of a year we were stuck with anytime we put the color blue in the title, it would check an I/S Box that it was for some DIsney character named Blue.   This was in Adult women's clothing.   That doesn't have Disney characters on it 99.999% of the time.   There were a bunch of things like that, drove us nuts!  It tried to understand words in our titles & made a giant mess of things!

How about this?   Ask sellers.  Real Sellers, not some desk person who thinks they know how the site works.  WE know how the site works, and the item specifics work badly.   Who else would ask you, when you no idea who made the item, what year it was made three times???

Sorry eBay, but that's your site, your stupid idea, and your annoying features.

In CCG category it will ask me if a card is graded, with "Yes" or "No" as the two dropdown choices. The additional specifics (Grade, Grading Company, ect.) start out greyed out. I choose "No", and the options then become editable - WHY!?
That and I will have to put in the same IS 3-4 times because it disappears from the box I just entered it in!
Currently have a notification to add recommended IS's on an item - I have every field filled in, and when I download the listing report it says I am all caught up.

Believe it or not, when IS's first came out, at least in CSA, they used to.  There was someone named Marni Sue who communicated with clothing sellers & solicited input & took some of our suggestions.  That stopped a LONG time ago though & now they all read like a 20something wrote them & have nothing to do with reality anymore.  No knit tops (at least 1/2 my sales), no jackets that aren't outerwear.  It's a mess!  But in a long ago land, far far away, they did at one time, ask sellers.
