Has Heritage changed their website for the worse?

There used to be a tab where I could see all my wantlist matches for an upcoming auction. Now, there's a tab for my wantlist where I have to click on each type of coin to see the matches, e.g., click to see proof Seated dimes, click to see proof Barber halves, etc. Adding insult to injury, there are Buy It Now listings and other spammy junk listings mixed in with the auction matches. I absolutely hate this and hope that I am overlooking something to give me back the old functionality of all my matches in a single list.

    I'm not sure but they are unique in having the most rigorous data auction site for numismatics and other collectibles.

    Good auction site. It has become a bit more cumbersome though over the years.

    Not near as friendly as it use to be. :(

    Heritage’s website is tuff 2 navigate. I get frustrated with it. Too many bells and whistles.

    Just go to pcgscoinfacts and look at auctions from there. Way more options.

    The only thing that is disappointing about the Heritage want list function is that the responses don't narrow down the items it locates in the auction or inventory enough. For example I am looking for a William II British penny. I get notices for William III and William IV coins all the time. I've ceased to get excited when I notices about "William" because it will almost never be the coin I want.

    Still having a want list function that isn't perfect is better than having none at all. I have been alerted to pieces that I want on occasion.

    If I recall correctly, you could see the details pages for lots with consecutive lot numbers, just by hitting a right arrow. Now you have to hit the "Back" key or retype in the next lot number. It would sure be convenient to have that right arrow back. Aren't there people who want to look at, say, all of the Seated Liberty halves?
