I added the subject and sender to the txt alert. I thought about adding a little bit of the message (content) but it would have to be a teaser as there are limits on the amount of txt per SMS.

Adding a little bit of the message content would be extremely helpful in my opinion if possible! I would love that feature.

This is a great idea! Including the CONTENT of PMs in the PM alerts would make this especially useful, I hope that's coming!

I didn't think about character limits. I think Subject and Sender would be fine for the quick SMS alerts. I would really really love to see full message text in e-mail alerts, though.
Once the basics are fully implemented, is there any chance:
- More than 3 keywords could be watched?
- Watches could include a maximum price?
- Watches could include a minimum condition?
I received a few messages VIA PM but only got a text message on my iPhone ONCE! Something's funky here... And I don't think the text came right away...

Only messages from FM Members will send you an SMS alert.
PMs from the site or Watchlist currently don't.
Other alerts like Thread subscription and Watchlist are going to be added as SMS options as well.

Hmm, sorry if this was covered already, but I'm not getting any SMS notification when I put in my cell number. I want this as when I list something to sell I want to be able to respond to PM's as fast as possible.
Just out of curiosity, how secure is putting in our mobile numbers? The reason I ask this is because I've started to get a HUGE amount of phones calls from all over the US. These aren't telemarketers or scammers, but rather people that have called back saying some one called them from my number. The only place I've recently shared my phone number was here. It also took some time for text messages to come thru from here. But since Monday I've been getting at least 80 if not 100 phone calls, mostly from the east coast. It could just be a coincidence, but just want to give Fred a heads up just to double check stuff out.
I ended up having to change my phone number and kinda of worried on putting in my new number for SMS messages. I paid membership just for that feature really.
Is this feature broken currently? It was working for a few days and I didn't change anything at all and now I'm not getting the text messages on my phone. It does appear in getting PMs but not texts to my phone.
I give up! I tried to find this option under Edit Profile and could not find anything that lets me add a watch list. It is not under notification nor under the profile so... where did you hide it?

As indicated in the first post, this option is only available if you have the buy/sell membership option.
I don't get email or SMS alerts for my watchlist and email only for other PMs. Not going to spam or anything. Just no message whatsoever. Site pop up notification works fine though. Any ideas?

I have the same issue. No email or SMS notifications. Regular PMs I get the email notification though.
I just signed up for the SMS notifications as well and they don't seem to be working for me either I receive the PM e-mail, but no text message ever comes through.
