NickGM Posted December 24, 2019 Share OK I can't keep this in any longer. The hyphen in KwaZulu-Natal is there to join two separate words. It's like Stratford-upon-Avon, Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma, X-ray or Sir Mix-a-Lot. So please put the hyphen between the Zulu and the English word, not in the middle of the Zulu word ("Kwa-Zulu") because that does not make sense. There, now you'll remember. I hope.

Capricorn Posted December 26, 2019 Share Total listings value R 511 395 478 five hundred and eleven million?

That's the total value of items listed since 1 January 2019. We don't have data on what % of that figure is actual sales, but from past surveys we'd expect it to be 40-60% of that amount.

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted December 26, 2019 Share Well, one of my goals for 2019 was realised. Reducing post count year on year. Far lower this year compared to last ones. Pure Savage 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
