Algorithm for showing "Best Seller," "Featured," and "Staff Pick" needs some tweaking

Rosie Perera

Three of us, in the space of a few hours, have seen three different triples on the CP page, as follows:

It feels like we're playing the slot machine! Wheeeee!

As Todd points out:

I think they need to tweak their algorithms:  I don't know what Featured means, I know Ussher isn't a best seller, and I don't believe the Staff has actually picked these when all three categories are the same.

I think our data here is accurate. It may just not be clear what's going on. We're filtering out items that you've already bid on, pre-ordered, or purchased, so what you're really seeing is the next product in that particular category that you have yet bid on, pre-ordered, or purchased. That's why it'll be different for most people.

We're working on the issue of the same product showing in multiple spots, as well as the ability to choose "not interested."
