for the last month my sent PMS seem to get lost in transmisson.this affected at least one BST purchase I tried to make..the seller never received any of my confirmation PMS and probably wrote me off as a deadbeat bidder.My local internet provider also changed ownership recently so that may be compounding my issue...anyone else?

    I've sent a few lately, didn't get responses and was wondering why?

    If it is sending a PM to someone else through this system, it isn't your ISP that you have......UNLESS it is a combination of this system sending your PM as an email to the recipient and your email being classified as junk/spam (due to the ISP being identified as a spam sender due to whatever reasons....like AOL/Yahoo are a lot of times).

    I know that, with this system, some PMs come to me as a PM only. Some come to me as email AND PM on the system. Likely that some may get them as an email only and that email may be overlooked or sent to a junk/spam filter.

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    When you messaged me this morning, you posted on my wall rather than by private message. The new software can be confusing. It is possible the notification from posting to someone's wall was lost in a flood of other notifications (PMs are separate).

    You've likely posted everything to other people's public walls. This is not the same as a PM and, in fact, anyone can read them. You should read this thread that I posted a while ago that explains the difference and how to use them.
