I'm starting this thread so I don't have to steal @razl's thunder, even while he's on leave. See his old thread HERE. I will try to add updates as time goes on.
I would also like to use this thread as a place for constructive criticism of the new Xenforo B&S system. Diving through the new B&S, I noticed a number of snags that prevented me from getting to the items I wanted to quickly. I propose the following list of improvements and would like to hear your comments:
Paging Noodle thread alums and other senior members for feedback on the new system

I would also like to use this thread as a place for constructive criticism of the new Xenforo B&S system. Diving through the new B&S, I noticed a number of snags that prevented me from getting to the items I wanted to quickly. I propose the following list of improvements and would like to hear your comments:
1). Being able to close the listings of items that have been sold via the "old school method" of exchanging Paypal info. This is leading to lots of clutter. It does no service to buyers trying to find stuff. See my latest set of posts starting HERE in the support thread
2). Adding back premium functionality for daily bumps like in the old system. Dedicated sellers should be able to pay a small fee to bump their stuff every 24 hours, etc.
3). Being able to sort by size for suits, sportcoats, shirts, shoes, etc. This is talked about a lot and would add greatly to the user friendliness of the B&S
4). Being able sort by condition. NWT vs NWOT vs used. Force people to pick from these 3 options when they create a listing, just like on eBay
5). A nit to pick, but the "Sportsjackets" category should be changed to "Sportcoats." No one here says "SJ." They say "SC"
6). Along similar lines, it would be helpful to simplify the Coats and Jackets categories to match eBay's nomeclature. After looking through a lot of the listings, I notice that there is confusion over the definitions of "coats," "jackets" and "sportsjackets."
7). ADDED JUNE 9: Have a category devoted to lengths of cloth (aka "unfunded liabilities"). No real need to further filter it by suitings, jacketings, coatings, trouser-ings. This was suggested by @Mr. Six and @C&A on the second page of this thread
