Hi nick! It would be super helpful to be able to “heart” ads or add them to a wishlist so you could find them at a later stage, helps if you want to follow up on someone who didn’t reply , or check up on an ad or able you to find an ad quickly once you come up with the cash! Haha

 

This feature will be in the first update.

 

Any strong preference for a heart or a star icon? Currently we have a heart.

Or know when they drop the price

 

The feature will notify you when the price changes, among other things.

Hi sent a PM to the admin regarding the poor use of the ad template. Relevant info not being posted up front which then requires to and fro to get info. For example forks posted without steerer length or QR or TA. Saddles without width. Quite frustrating.

 

Agreed, completed adverts would be great.

 

But we do have to cater for people who simply don't know what is important to include. And there are a significant number of them. We'd prefer to have the advert placed and incomplete rather than not placed at all.

 

It's going to take a bit longer but we do have plans to build in some coaching mechanisms and deeper learning content to assist people in completing their adverts. 

 

Also some kind of advert completion ranking/ scale might help incentivise people to fill in all the fields.

There's also the users who violate the T&Cs by reposting a new advert for the same item every second day or so? ;)

I may have missed that fine print.

Didn't realise making the effort to keep ads relevant may be in violation of the T&Cs.

Sincerest apologies.

Your Roubaix has been catching my eye on the homepage.  :D

 

We do need to do more to make people aware of this. We currently only really act on the extreme cases.

This is GREAT! Heart is cool - will this also be seen on the mobile site? Or only on a desktop ?

On both. Mobile and desktop will be the same website for the homepage and classifieds.

on mobile will it also allow you to follow an add and have the option of "instant notification"?

There won't be a difference in the new classifieds. It's the same site. Things might just move around slightly to fit on different screen sizes. What you can do on desktop you will be able to do on mobile.

I get this bs every so often: a guy will pm me in response to an ad, so the guy(in this instance a member since 2011 so not a noob) has seen my ad which has my cell number in it but no dude is too lazy/entitled to whatsapp me himself or use pm's so I get the following:

 

Hi

Is the chest mount still available?
And i see you have a chain cleaner also is that also available?

Pls msg
076*******
M*****
Thanks

 

Ok fine I go through the schlep of adding his number to my contacts list and send him a whatsapp, wtf but the very first reply is :

 

"Hi. Could you please wassup me some photos of them pls?"

 

I went to some trouble to put some very decent looking pics in the ads which this guy must have seen but now wants his own set of custom pics, what the hell. Fair enough if he replies and says he'd like to see a close up of the part to check the wear etc, that's understandable or that his work blocked the images etc.

 

So naturally I ask if he has seen the pics in the ads?

Idiot reads the reply, no reply back.

I leave it for a while, then message him And? Still no reply.

 

Some people, no idea what pluck they are on :huh:

Don't forget the repeat questioning of things clearly stated in the ad.!

But yes, those extra pics and even videos to then never get a response or even a thanks for the effort, grates all of us I'm sure.

What's up with the Classifieds.?

Don't seem to be able to post and there doesn't seem to have been much posted by others either ...
