Collectors Market concern...
I find it to be problematic that the Collectors Market allows dealers to dominate the space. An easy solution would be to provide a separate market for private sales, but failing that, there should, in my view, be strict limits on the number of ads that can be posted by dealers over a specified period of time.
As I write this, "Lisalisa" has at least ten ads running, including several consecutive ones at the top of the list. What this does, among other things, is to push ads posted by individuals well down, if not off of the front page. I am aware of the fact that there is a search function, but that is beside the point.
I find this problem to be particularly acute and ironic given the choice of the default 'look' of the new site. In other words, there are good sized photos shown which have the effect of exacerbating the problem as multi-posting dealers literally dominate the space, and crowd out posts by individuals.
I do not sell many watches, but I must say that this problematic dynamic gives me pause when deciding whether or not to use the PP space.

We have a fix just ready to release.
The idea is that when you search you can do the filter to get to the private sellers and the dealers but you will control it not simply volume of posts
We are very close.
And yes we are listening always and we do appreciate your thoughts. This is a place we all share.

WE have made some changes. I hope this address some of your thoughts.
On the initial display i.e. just clicking on Collectors market you will get no more than three items per seller being the most recent three. So even if they just post or relist 10 items only three will be displayed in this view.
When you do a search for a brand or a model you will get all the listing but here again you will be able to easily filter the Dealer from the private sellers.
You can do further filtering to narrow your search.
