    Hey all, how many eBay saved searches do you have set on your account?

    Just curious what the highest number will be........

    I’ll start out: 14!

    @noelekal i was going to say you’re my hero but I think @pitpro is the early winner here. What is the max that eBay allows then??

    Didn't count mine but here's what the eBay community says
    The theoretical limit is 200. In practice, many people find that works out to being somewhere in the 180s to 190s.

    For watches, I have 8. Of those I look at 3 regularly, 1 occasionally and the rest I just haven't bothered to delete.

    It would be nice if they could alert you close to real-time with a saved search listing.

    I’ve stopped adding eBay alerts because the delay makes it a bit useless. I now use Geo Ship...same issue with a lag between listing time and their once daily alert, but I like that they search all the regional eBay sites so I see what is listed in countries eBay wants to hide from me. I think I have like 60 saved searches through Geo Ship.

    I agree, the email alerts are useless.

    Zero saved searches... Doing alright without them, I think.

    The nice thing is you can make the saved searches
    your eBay homepage so if you click on the eBay logo
    top left, all listings that correspond to what you indicated you
    were interested in is on that page with the titles of the listing
    and the main photos of the listings

    When we were kids, there was always one goody-two-shoes in class.
