Good old days
I miss the days where going on vine was fun and exciting. It was like shopping our own secret Amazon store. I know newbies don’t realize this but it was so much better. You could actually search for something and 9 times out of ten you could find it. In all seriousness- I totally outfitted my camper. I mean everything from surge protectors, hoses, dishes, silverware pillows, linen, chairs, bookstore, even upgraded faucets. I literally mean everything I needed to stock and operate that camper. The only thing I needed to bring was food. I also outfitted my home, dishes, decor, linens. It was amazing. Now you have to fight for everything- and if you aren’t on top of the drop the second it happens- you are SOL on anything but ugly overpriced knick knacks and car and computer parts.. . Yesterday- I was grabbing things, with no chance to check it out, on the hopes it may meet my needs. And I missed out on a ton Of stuff- gone before you even got a chance to try. And I started scrolling the second the drop was announced. These stupid bots, influx of a ton of new people and an inventory that has dropped from 100,000’s items to 15,000 if we are lucky. And 13,999 are crap none of can use. It’s sad. I hope things will change but… my hope is fading. I wish you all had had the experience I did, maybe someday it will come back, but have things gone to far?
