Hello,
I just got word that our engineers are currently working to integrate the new multi-variation listing feature with our services. This is a large project and there currently is no ETA for it's arrival.
I also asked if all of the threads on this could possibly be combined.
Got this note in part back:
I will forward on your comments to have the forum updated with info about the multi-variation feature and its ETA. I will also forward on a request to have those threads combined. I am not sure if this is possible but will forward it on to moderator.
I wrote on Monday November 2nd asking if this could be forwarded to moderator and how frustrating receiving no responses in the forums is.
I received this note on Tuesday 3rd

Hello,
I have forwarded your comments on to the forum moderator but I do not expect any update in the forums on this topic for the time being, as there no new developments on that feature at this time.
I also asked why they wanted discussion if they were not going to discuss? And mentioned that the discussion thread was opened after this was already being discussed.
Tonight I got this response:

Hello,
Correct, I have no further news on this feature from our developers. We asked for discussion on this topic to judge how many users want this feature is to our customer base. However, many other factors play into the decision of adding this feature and at this time there is no further update on this feature.
I asked if this is being worked on or NOT? So we can get on with the getting on. Here is response I received today:
As I have previously stated at this time there is no update on that feature and when it will be available. Currently it is still in the decision process.
So.. am assuming first response was not totally true and find it quite disturbing that noone can tell us.
It is being worked on with no ETA. . OR is it still under discussion. Simple question. It is deceptive to lead us along only to find that it is not being worked on at all.
Auctiva.. if I am interpreting this incorrectly, please feel free to correct the information.
I feel like I am beating a dead horse here.
Anyone else want this?? If so. .we better start speaking up in forums and in emails.
Ebay is introducing more categories for this.. and as more are introduced this will become more useable for many more sellers.
If you are interested in this or may be in the future, how is the time to write support and in the forums. they need to know that we want this.
Thanks
