| Why oh why can't we delete old items for sale. I have to scroll all the way to the bottom of a big list to find my new entries...back to the ball game. I don't have the disposition for taking this much time for a very simple task. |

| I like the option of being able to keep it or delete it. I would hate to have to re-invent the wheel next year for some items--its so much easier just to relaunch. But there are also some things I'd like to go away forever too.

| I wish all old things would go away forever...just would be so much easier to launch if we could only delete old items...what is the purpose of keeping them on the computer????????? |

| I would say just add this to your "wish list", and when Dave asks for suggestions in the future, you'll have it ready! |

| The reason the computer holds onto old listings is that many people sell the same things more than once so having the old orders kept around keeps them from having to redo their entire listing every time. I think there might be some ways to arrange your products so you're not having to scroll through everything to find your new ones. I haven't sold anything so I couldn't tell you exactly how to do it, but I thought someone had posted on another thread that there was a way to sort or limit what you're viewing in your list. |

| I think more detailed buyer and seller tutorials would be a good idea to add to a wish list.

| That would be fantastic...I am just not very good with a computer so I really struggle with DGMarkeplace. |

| I need more detailed instructions rather than a few directions. I`m busy and would rather search answers. Having a supportive manual would help burn off steam if I was frustrated about something and keep me on track. I`m sure there could be some buyers or sellers too shy to ask if they need help or have a frustrating compounding problem. A manual would be something to help them think out some things.
Even when I buy a new camera I read the whole manual even though
I have been taking pictures since I was three years old.

| I just wish I could really delete my old dmails!!! Everything I have finished with and is old, why can't it just go away so I don't have to fool with it anymore?

| You can click on "delete this" and it'll move them to a separate folder of deleted dmails, that way you don't have to look at them in your inbox. |

| yes, I do that, but I want to get rid of all of the old ones I have in there and only put newer ones in there. |

| Unfortunately I don't think that's possible unless Dave reprograms the whole dmail system. A dmail is basically like the threads in the forums, except it's only viewable for you and the person you're corresponding with. So if it were deleted, it would disappear from your mailbox and also from theirs. That's why Dave created the deleted folder, that way you could easily get rid of things from your inbox so you don't have to look at them even though they can't really be deleted. |

| I think of all my old Dmail as a mulch pile and I imagine it is rotting and becoming compost. :)
It helps me deal with it anyway... |
