    The search has been bad for so long. Searching title and description should be the standard way, people shouldn't have to cram stuff into a title to get their listing found. A good ranking algorithm, smart tokenisation, normalising, and stemming -  good full text search isn't that hard, there are solutions out there.  Doesn't matter if it returns a thousand, ten thousand, a million results as long as the ranking makes the first 20 are the ones you were actually looking for.

    I don't know if it's new or I just never noticed until recently, but the frozen-purple colour scheme being introduced is so weird and offputting.

    If you accurately described the item and did not mislead the buyer, as a private seller you are under no obligation to accept a return for any reason, let alone to pay for return shipping.

    I assume it is all MVL listings, not just Max's Gary-NZStocked? Better add a note to my "you didn't choose what you wanted" email :/

    Works for me (just checked the first random listing with choices I could find, not one of yours specifically). It is not uncommon (at all) for customers to just leave it as the first-selected-option.  For that reason I make all my listings have the first option be "Default / Random Choice", that way    1. I know they did that, and can check with them what they actually wanted   2. if they don't respond (more often than not!) then I can quite rightly just send them what I think is best/have most of/reach first
