Title: Classifieds
Post by: kiwi1941 on June 16, 2013, 03:42:23 AM
I wonder if the classified section is earning its keep? There are two pages of listings with lots of views and not a single bid recorded - so it can't be just that mine are expensive! Is the UK depression deeper than is being reported?  ??? Brian

I think the way it shows up is the problem - stuff is most definitely getting sold via it!

As EP   says Brian  things are selling on there i   had some  autoracks on recently which   sold  i  removed the listings once they ended to save on  space on the site,   currently i   have some Mk1 coaches on  &  have said i'm  open  to   reasonable offers / negotation  which i  feel is at times more agreeable to  both   seller &   buyer.   

I prefer to offer  items on here first rather than  on  ebay.

EP - Do you mean the quality of the pix? Brian

Yes, it's certainly quite busy on there. :thumbsup:  I've managed to sell 6 of my loco's in the last couple of weeks.  The 'Buy It Now' seems to be used the most, and the auctions aren't used so much.

I'm still waiting for the next version to become available with some major improvements, but the developer is taking his time. ::) :)

Thanks Tank - I'll bear that in mind. Brian

Well two antipodean ex-poms seem to be keeping up the trade between New Zealand and Australia! I suppose one sale out of three auctions isn't too bad. :thumbsup: Brian
