Exclamation UI Annoyance: Adding album to sell list does not notify user that it succeeded/failed

Annoyance:
When an album is checked and submitted to the sell list, there is no confirmation message that the operation succeeded. The page just refreshes itself.

How to Reproduce:
1) Login
2) Select the "My Collection" link in the contextual pop-up in the upper-right of the page, next to your username.
3) Select the "Manage My Albums" link at the bottom of the collection page.
4) On the next page, check off various albums, select "Add to Sell List" option from the "With Checked..." dropdown menu at the bottom of the page.
5) Hit the Submit button. The page just refreshes itself. No message of any kind. At first, I thought it didn't work, so I kept submitting. When I finally looked at the sell list, I saw duplicate albums from my multiple submissions of the same album.

As much as I hate redirects, you have a point about leaving the user hanging there so I added one in.

Hi Secret Squirrel,
While a page redirect on success/fail is typical, if you are looking to avoid that, it seems that page submits on itself, so maybe GigaBlah can display a success/fail message somewhere.

Thanks for implementing an immediate fix on this.

Well, i've redirected it to the sell-list page so that you can enter in conditions and prices.

That works for me. Thanks for addressing that problem.
