    Default Highlighting Sales (discount)

    When you discount an item it has a "sale" icon next to the price on the listing page. It would be good if it also showed this symbol when browsing categories, searching etc.

    Beat me to it more or less.

    Just started a sale and looked at my gallery view and though it would be good if a little corner banner could be laid over the appropriate showroom or gallery images stating the discount amount - a bit like this

    I like that ---


    The way it is the full capacity of the option is not being realized. The buyer has no idea they may be getting a special price until they open the listing (if they are thinking they may check later they may be disappointed or just think the seller has raised the price if the sale has gone off). If the sale is close to going off both the buyer and the seller may have lost due to the fact the buyer didn't realize it was on sale. The whole idea of using this option is to entice the buyer by offering them a sale and the sooner they find it out the greater the impact. The less work the buyer has to do to see it is a sale the more apt they are to open the listing to take a better look.
