so. last week, right before the 15th, i deleted and re posted all my vehicle ads thinking i could get one last run in before the $5 charge.

well, theyve expired after only 7 days. so no more 30 day runs i guess.

so, i just posted everything in the barter section. "will trade for cash" lol

I've noticed a drastic drop in cars available IDK how they made money before, but they fucked themselves with the fees.

so one of my searches used to be "rust free" and would pop up like 300 cars or so. today, it only brought up 38.

 

[Yaj Yak]

fuck i didn't even think about my saved searches being WAY down. fuck

 

[daturbosix]

omg. "gto" only has 5 hits.

this is horrible.

I noticed that last night when I was searching the same.

 

[10sec]

Yep All of my daily searches are down to nothing but dealers.

 

[CMNTMXR57]

Does this extend to auto parts too? Or just whole vehicles?

Noticed a drop-off in G8 parts that used to be on there (not that there were many to begin with).

 

[Yaj Yak]

just private party cars & trucks.

 

[CMNTMXR57]

Ok, I figured they just expired, just thought I'd ask.

 

[Yaj Yak]

well if this isn't the sketchiest looking credit card form ever.

 

[daturbosix]

Lol yeah. Bout that...

 

[Lord Tin Foilhat]

Lol is it even SSL?

 

[Yaj Yak]

So... because this is going on, I think a LOT of people just aren't advertising on CList private party- as we've seen.

So i was like hmmm... that sounds like a lack of inventory for people looking (many of whom likely have 0 idea that people have to pay to list now)

so i paid the five bucks yesterday.


HOLY FUCK. my phone wouldn't fucking stop. emails, texts, phone calls, WOULD NOT FUCKING STOP.

I had more action on my bmw in an hour yesterday afternoon than i did the entire other week (before pay to list)

 

[10sec]

Yea, it's like the only car on CL private party

 

[Yaj Yak]

may as well pay the whole five dollars then

 

[10sec]

Honestly, with the lack of cars right now, it's not a bad deal. I wish I was ready to sell my Prelude, there's only one other one on all of CL right now. I'd totally get what I ask for it.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

I need to sell our civic, so worth paying $5?

 

[daturbosix]

try it in the barter section or auto parts.

there are alot of people getting creative now ive noticed. but it makes it difficult to search through all categories for complete cars...

on the other hand its only $5. but does that only give you a 7 day run? id hate to have to pay $5/wk for each ad
