Members have been reporting that sellers and items that they have added to their Favorites are vanishing without a trace. These are not instances of items expiring or being deleted by the seller, nor of sellers closing shop, which leaves behind a greyed-out box where the item/seller used to be. Some members report having to ‘heart’ the same sellers over and over again, only to have them continually disappear.
Despite these reports, RD says:
If you don’t see something in your favorites list anymore, it’s because it is unavailable for some reason.
If it is a listing, it may be deleted or in edit mode. If it’s a seller, they may no longer have an active account.
The favorites system is working properly, and as far as we’ve seen there have been no confirmed cases of favorites being lost.
If you have any information you believe to be evidence otherwise, please let us know! :]

“ITS ALL SOMEBODY ELSE’S FAULT!” is his new slogan. Someone make a tshirt with his face and that on it.

glad I don’t use the favorites to mark items. Or those disappearing shop policies.
