Classifieds Enhancements/ Changes :

Membership Levels:
• Contributing Member annual dues are $30. This membership includes 30 classified ads total per year, including 2 vehicle ads. Once you post a classified you can’t add additional items after initial listing. You can edit your listing for correction or clarification.
• Premier Member annual dues are $60 This membership includes 60 classified ads total per year, including 2 vehicle ads. Once you post a classified you can’t add additional items after initial listing. You can edit your listing for correction or clarification.
• Advertising Member annual dues are $125. This membership includes 125 classified ads total per year, including 3 vehicle ads. Once you post a classified you can’t add additional items after initial listing. You can edit your listing for correction or clarification.


Noted changes:
• The originator of the ad can bump their ad after 10 days. The bump icon is only viewable by the originator.. If you select the bump icon prior a prompt will show the remaining day until a bump can be executed. See Illustration below.
• The originator of the ad can now mark an item sold. The sold icon is only viewable by the originator. If you select the sold icon it is moved to a sold archive folder, so only active ads are viewed. The sold archive folder is viewable and used as a historical record. See Illustration below.
• Members can post a comment on other members ads, and no longer inadvertently bump ads. In the past we discouraged commenting but that is no longer an issue. Members posting on other ads should contain questions seeking information
and as always no bashing due to price. If something is mis-advertised pm a moderator.
• Classifieds threads will now have a photo. This photo is the first photo the originator uploads.

User CP (Control Panel) New Features
• There is a new option at the bottom Sales Threads. If you select that icon it will show all you past and present sales threads you’ve originated. It’s a handy feature when searching for items you’ve sold.
• There is now a sales post indicator at the top of the Sales Thread screen, which displays the # of sales threads you’ve posted/used and the total originally available based on your membership level. The illustration shows I’ve used 28 out of
30. I have two sales post left.


**Adding classified ads. If you run out of classified ad posting, you can purchase a new membership (Contributing 30 ads, Premier 60 ads or Advertising 125 ads) your old membership
will be canceled without refund of any remaining time. A new membership will start, with as selected classified posting privileges along with new anniversary date. The cost of an ad is still $1””

***The above memberships are offered to non-commercial entities***



Sponsorships are available to Commercial Entities. We have many options and features that can be configured to meet your budgetary and promotional requirements. More details such as levels and options are located in the Sponsor Forum. Sponsors can place 5 adds per day (unlimited if listing in your exclusive forum). Sponsors can bump their ads every 3 days in the general classified forum. Vehicle classified ad total listings vary based on the selected metal package.



As always I appreciate your support and look forward to our latest feature My Garage & Journey to launch following this implementation. The changes are newly implemented and if you have questions or encounter issues, please PM or email [email protected] and I will try to address expeditiously.
