Disappointed with DAE

I really use to be a fan of DAE, especially in their early days in the U.S. but not now. I have a deposit that is about to expire after already extending it once. But none of my ongoing requests have filled and searches have been fruitless. Talking to their reps has not helped.
Their new website has made it hard to search and I think that it is how they designed it, to hide the fact that they have so little inventory to offer.
I will not make another deposit with them.

I lost a deposit several years ago with DAE. I never deposited again with them.

It really is a pain to use now. They don't have much but at least you could see easy what was there to offer before the change.
I have 4 deposits that will go to waist real soon. It's such a pain to see what might be available I gave up.

I used my last deposit and then said adios, I would give them no more deposits since RCI took over.

I use to use them a lot. Since RCI took over they have been useless.
