I like the new classifieds, especially splitting up the components. But why are there no separate sections for cranks, bottom brackets or pedals?
New Classifieds
- Thread starter Munster
- Start date
Because I missed them 
They're there now.

Thank you!
One more question... it won't let me Post a wanted ad. I get to step two and then I can't choose anything in the dro-down menu.
Also... why can't I always see the "pros and cons" in the reviews section?

I really dig the seperation of components. One of the few things I never liked about the site.
I recommend a "size" column (i.e. seatpost, rear shocks, frames, bikes, etc.)
I have mixed feelings about the auto visible description. It makes it difficult to scan, and now that the components are broken into sections, it seems redundant.

I'm sorta getting used to it actually. I just wish the rows were narrower so more listings were visible at a time.Biscuit said:
And the # of views is relatively useless IMHO.
what section would a 1 kilo brick of cocaine go under?
I dunno, but if you decide to put it under "free stuff" let me knowarboc! said:
The limit only means you can't have more than 5 active ads at a time, which is lots for most people, and if you're planning on selling lots, you can get a Premium Membership and post unlimited ads.
Ah, I didn't know a Premium Membership would un-do that feature.
But then again, think about how many people used to have ads in the Buy and Sell along the lines of "garage sale," with like 50 little odds and ends. If you un-did the 5 max feature you'd have more active ads, making the feature look more "active" and alive, therefore drawing in more members and interest.

I think if people are going to be selling 50 odds and ends they can probably splurge for a premium membership that costs a little over $2 per month. For the average person 5 items at a time should be plenty.
Just click "Sold it".bjanga said:
I've increased the limit for non-Premium Members to 10 active ads.
Try clicking "edit", I think there's a checkbox in there to delete it.bjanga said:But I did not sell it . . . I do not want to mess up the statistics for the classifieds
Sorry if Im just blind, but did the "good sellers thread" get moved over to the new board? Didnt see it first time through...
<edit> I think I found it... under feedback... So is it cool to post feedback to people that we have dealt with in the past?

I wish there was a way to bump posts... 
I couldnt find it either.. where is this "feedback" section you speak of, and is that the section we should start using for good sellers? Hope somehow that hasn't been totally deleted.. was a useful thread.Natedogg said:
Can you make it so that "Free" adds don't count in this "10"?Ridemonkey said:
The generosity of the RM community is one of the most awesome things here. It would be a shame to limit it.
I'll second that.bcd said:
Hmm that makes sense...not sure that there's an easy way to do that though. I'll look into it.Biscuit said:
I dont know why no one is responding to the feedback or good sellers thread questions... I found the feedback by going to the classifieds section and then clicking on the sellers name. It doesnt appear that the feedback page is available anywhere other than in the classified forum area. (?)dgrif said:
Hmmm... I cant find the old good sellers thread either. Head monkey dude, can we get that back--at least for a short time so I can remember who Ive dealt with so I can leave them feedback on the new system?
Working on it.
Dang, that was quick. What service!Ridemonkey said:Working on it.
Can you adjust the classified's timestamp with our timezone profile? Always seeing stuff 3 hours in the future
.

IF you have an ad for 15 days... can you edit it to make it stay for say 30 days?
Is there anyway you can have a size column for frames and complete bikes?
Your wish is granted.
Cool, makes looking for a small frame in the future much, much faster.
Carefull about being too nice.. first you let them out of the kitchen, then they start blabing on about things like "rights" and "feelings"...:devil:Ridemonkey said:

Sometimes I am not looking for a specific type of part, just seeing what is for sale. It is harder to scan the ads now, too many small categories. For the components category for example would it be possible to have a master list for them show up when you click components, the newest ads listed.... that could be underneath all the small categories. just a thought...
Ya, i agree with RD3. I would like to have a category that basically amalgamates all of the other categories so i can just browse what is for sale.
Click the recent ads link.
Ah sweet, maybe make that a bit more visible? Took me a bit to find it - green button up top maybe?
Also can we have a user selectable ads per page type thing? I'd prefer to see 50 ads on a page rather then across 5 pages or whatever.
