They are back. Still storing plaintext username and password in cookies, plus emailing passwords.

Security is not a thing for them. I wouldn't touch it for real life transactions until it's secure.

Its Back up but still with the same problems but they have introduced more bugs.. I cannot edit anything I'm selling now (Edit Advert Link).

But at least the website is going a lot faster now.

"but you can do all the testing you want - you can only really know the true impact in the real environment."

What, they actually DID testing and it passed in it's current state????

Why would they do that? You're finding the bugs and issues for them for free here. ;)

networkn: If they are free, how are they generating revenue?

"It is free to list any items for sale on sella and there are no success fees.

The same goes for vehicles and property its free to list and still no success fees.

We do have some paid enhancements for listings that you can optionally add to your listings."

They rely on advertising etc....

Oh I don't know... seems to me you're doing a fine job of that from here... ;)

I've been over on TMMB and seen back links to your posts from there as well!

...but moving on...

Do you think that the title of this thread should be changed? :p
