Is the N'porium still being used as looks a bit empty at moment?
You don't know what you can do what you can't

I'm not sure a lot gets sold via it. I've placed two sets of ads over the last year and only sold one item out of 10, despite prices being competitive. All the stuff later sold on eBay. I've had some vehicles for sale for a month at cheaper prices than you can get elsewhere but not a sniff.....

I sell all my stuff on the N'porium Facebook Page - much easier to use

Yeah, but for the avoidance of doubt that's literally what is wrong with the N'porium and why I said it was terrible; you need to post somewhere else to say "hey I'm selling a thing" for people to see it!

I always look at whats on there once a week or so, but I agree it's not easy to see new stuff going on.

Seriously?

Why start a bun fight here after already starting one elsewhere?

:doh:

There is a point to consider here. While my vehicles only sold after the prompt this morning, there had been 105 views so quite a few people knew it was there, but didn't want to buy for whatever reason. I thought there used to be a post on the main board when something was added to the NPorium, has this stopped now?

I went into the Listing to cancel it but see someone has got there before me, presumably one of the mods?

No bun fights were started! I merely gave an opinion, which was disputed. This is an example of why I gave that opinion. You may continue to disagree with it  :thumbsup:

I stuck some track up for sale a couple of months back and it was gone in a day, so it can be a good place to sell.

Young Bulla

And very much appreciated it was too!
Just having fun with it trying to fit a terminus station into a 2.2 metre by 15cm space.
Once again, thank you Red Onion.

You're most welcome! I'm glad it went to a good home and hope to see your finished project on here one day  :)

Yes, the posts still generate automatically when a listing is approved. 

Also, to those who may use Adblockers, there is a random listing that appears to the right of the forum to help advertise and listings.
