Oh no! I did not know this at all :serious_NF: No, I'm not a serious trader and I buy for myself like 99.5% of the time.
I like the old format because:
- It keeps me thrilled and engaged throughout the sale days to see what's next every 8 hours.
- You get to vote what goes next in the community choice.
- Flash sales every 8 hours (with deep discounts that normal 8 hour sales).
- Chance for price errors every 8 hours
- Every 3 votes gave you a reward (trading card) which felt better than blindly Next, Next, Next your discovery queue (new format).
I give you on that error part. Really miss those days.
But think about flash sale, it won't be that much thrilling if you keep on missing them for some reason or other. In the new format, you at least have the luxury to beg, borrow or steal till the last date.
