    I just recently posted an add for $3 in the classified section. I didn't mind paying the $3 at all, although I do prefer the old method. Seems like all the Buy/Sell action is gone from this site now that it's changed. There used to be almost a full page of new stuff everyday. Seems like a post or two if you're lucky every day or two.

    Oh well.

    I just wish there was another way of paying, other than PayPal.
    Since I relocated, changed banks etc. I have been having problems changing my account details. No doo hickey for me:lol:

    The work around

    The potential buyers should just post up what they're looking for in the WTB section, (which is free) and all the sellers should look there first.

    The WTB list is many pages long.

    I still intend to add a small block onto the homepage showing recent ads from the classifieds. Soon...

    I think the fee is a very small price to pay for hosting an ad on this site. C'mon folks, it's $2. You probably pay more for that for coffee every day.
