Do you notify members of new item availability?

Trying to decide if the perception of the notification is one of appreciation
or is it considered obnoxious.

I have been notifying approximately every 2 weeks or after a mass lot increase.

Thoughts?

Also appreciate purchaser commentary if any wander by this thread.

Yes, can’t say I’ve heard of anything bad of sending them (so long as one doesn’t
delete lots and reupload them to resend them out). I send notifications of new
lots out 1 time per week

I notify every time I post new lots which varies a few times a day to 0 a day.
I don't get that many orders when I do post new lots though. Unless it is
DBG or LGB parts. Doesn't hurt to notify as you never know.

Hope this helps

You're not gonna get much "purchaser commentary" or new input within
the BL forum as currently structured. It will be the usual two dozen dwellers
that push-out most organic contributions to the forum. Start there...

As to your query (sincere or not) just notify. Why not? They've asked to
be via their want-list

As a seller i have learned, pay your fees. I didn't pay my fees and months
later I am still suffering. I loaded 300+ legs and got no sales, variety is the
spice of life. Be an influencer, some have noticed a 25% increase in sales.

what does paying your fees have to do with OP's question about notifying
buyers you have new lots in your store?


To the OP I notify every time I have uploaded a new batch of parts (just to get
rid of that annoying notification)
