I hate websites that when you go back, shuffled and don't show you what caught your eye along with the other one you went to.
I saw a thread, braa instead of bro. Went to check another thread. Clicked on back arrow and of course, new list shows up. Wishing there was a search on CS. Hmmm...scrolling, scrolling..HA! There is all the way on the bottom. So type in words and click on search icon. Nothing. Again. Nothing. Tried a few times and give up!
I see that on lots of sites. Click on stuff and can't get it. Why do they bother if they can't make it work?
Learned to ignore those teasers that show in news. Go to them and you will get 50 Nexts to click on. That is so they can keep pushing ads at you. Click too fast and hit what jumped and get that ad.
If you want to show me a stars kids, or what they are doing or what was found at the bottom of Niagara Falls, then just get to it. They think I actually ever pay attention to ads on line or TV?scold roll eyes I tune them out..might as well be screen savers to me. TV, hit mute. If don't read, view back grounds of scenery.tongue

I so get it. Been having some frustration with Skyping doctors and surgeons. Everyone says “ oh, it’s easy”, but the systems make me re-enter copious piles of info peculiar to complex code ids and so on and so on. Finally was able to with the help of a friend/nurse here, but it was definitely NOT easy!!

I can't remember how long ago that happened. We used to be able to directly type in the search code, which included commands for excluding and quoting the phrase you wanted (not letting them pick what part of the search they wanted to give you).

I think it is the greed factor of companies. They think they can manipulate shoppers. Throw everything at them and they will impulse buy. Wrong! I just get fed up and quit.
Ebay is a good one for lose leaders. They show the item you are after at a super cheap price. Then when you go to look and select it, oh, guess what..price jumps to what everyone is at. So hunt through choices and find out it is some stupid little bit that is the price listed. Think I will now pay the higher price. Nope. GONE! If you think you can lure me in and then try to cheat me...up yours. I will buy from the honest seller then.
It gets very frustrating that these selling sites think we are such fools that we aren't wise to their tricks.
If I want a baby blue pillow, I am NOT going to buy a baby buggy! Nor a blue sofa!frustrated doh very mad

I'm not exactly sure what your beef is with ebay. Granted it's not perfect, but I buy between $500-$1000 a year in appliance parts alone. I'm very rarely disappointed with a purchase, and when I am it usually gets resolved to my satisfaction.
Just about everything I buy is cheaper there then anywhere else. I also really like the fact that I can buy so many items without spreading my financial information all over the net.
