Default WTB on BST

Can anyone remember a time when you've seen more WTB posts on the BST?

We're going to have to change our definition to "Wanted To Buy"...

Default Pickings are poor on eBay

Listings are poor on eBay.

They just keep duplicating listings, and are hoping we don't notice the drop in unique listings!

A huge SNAFU. GDMF seller FOMO, IMHO. Hope it changes PDQ or we collectors are SOL. TTFN.

I get excited about adding to my PC, what can I say? Haha. It's all in good fun though.

Lol, AJ. You wrote what most of us are thinking. The worst is when just a card name is written in the subject, and you click into it to learn it’s a WTB.

This is annoying. Although most of the time people do put WTB in the headline. Maybe we need separate sections for buyers and sellers.

Hi Leon might be a good suggestion to create the WTB only section... Here's how they do it on rolexforums.com

Awesome idea.

If you do a WTB, would it be one section for all eras? Or a WTB section for each era? I don't like the idea, but that's just my opinion.

Or the humans that post here could establish their needs, it's not difficult to post FS vs LTB. If you (not you) need a mommy to tell you what to do this might not be the place for you (not you).

Bumping this to see if it would be feasible to create a separate WTB section. Or maybe we could limit WTB posts of cards we know everyone wants to buy. Goudey Ruth, Mantle, Aaron, Cobb, etc. Anything that sells 5 minutes after it's posted.
