Hear, hear. I have wasted two whole afternoons trying to update my pricing (I have no co-creator models). I have a batch of brand new models to upload, which I have promised to expectant customers, at a costly enough price.
On the very weekend we have a major pricing update, I find Product Inventory Management NOT WORKING. When I add new markups, the total price vanishes, and nothing uploads to the model page. So after two days, I abandon that, and just put flat markup figures directly onto the model page, which refuses to show me the final Euro price, just a useless price ex sales tax and VAT.
THEN I find that even THOSE markups are not saving, and when I log out and check, the earlier price is STILL there.
Shapeways, this is a load of nonsense. I love the service, and absolute kudos for the excellent customer service on the ground. But whoever is in charge of the web facilities needs a kick up the backside, because the whole thing, as far as I can see, is an unmitigated disaster. Every single thing that has been changed has not worked, or has been as flawed and inconvenient as it could be, and I have wasted whole days struggling to understand the new arrangements. If I cannot figure it out, then what hope in hell have occasional customers I might win?
Who decided to initiate a major pricing review the same week that the website and pricing facilities are in a complete state of flux and disrepair?
Shapeways priority right now is to draw a line under these ridiculous changes. Take five days, and guarantee us that in five days this will all be fixed permanently and securely, or if not, will revert to the original design, which at least worked, given it's own limitations. I want to advertise models for sale to customers, and I certainly do not want them coming back complaining that I am advertising one price and they are paying something else.
