So I was browsing the forums when I read about this new stealth system. I'm a new buyer, I just bought two items in the last week, waiting on them now. I went in and became a fan of sellers I have not bought from, but would like to buy from in the near future, in case they decide to start selling stealthily. Am I stopping their regular customers from now getting a list on the fan page?

I'm pretty sure that would defeat the purpose of the system. Any customer should be able to get on a sellers favorite list. I have added a couple sellers to my list that I have not bought from yet too just in case they go stealth.

at this point the biggest benefit to becoming a fan is if a seller decides to go into stealth mode. Their listings won't show up in the regular sections, and you can only get to their page by using the direct URL (which you have if you are a fan).
I have been bugging SR to open it up a bit and let us vendors be able to do more with the Fan option, like fans-only sales and stuff like that. I would be all over that :)

I did the same. There's a few vendors that I've been watching but havn't gotten around to trying yet and I added them too
Some/most of my favorites aren't even up right now. It would be a shame if they came back and I didn't know because they were stealth
