A lot of guys put a lot of stuff into one advert (especially shops). These sales never gets reported as sales and no price is ever attached. I would remove the ability to list more than one item per advert (a groupset is seen as one item) And also, seems like Bikehubpay is a good income generator. 😎 It does work however. We're conscious that a number of factors will skew that top line listings value of R 723 million. As you mention, some ads combine items and use a placeholder price (e.g. R123) which under reports value, while other users repeat ads which over reports. Strictly speaking neither is a behaviour we allow or encourage but both would have a relatively small impact on this number. Actual sales enabled by Bike Hub is the more meaningful figure and the user-reported figure for 2021 was R246 million. While significant, we know this is well under the actual figure since 60% of ads posted are either deleted (instead of marked sold) or left to expire without feedback on sold status. BigDL 1

Surprisingly, no-one has been in the top 10 every year. i think i have cheated your system by changing my name a few times over the year! rider #35 and "my stuff" was me too

Bikehub IMHO is poorer for the lack of diversity. As a long time hubber since 2005 and an expat who will never use the classifieds, this was the primary reason i did not renew my bikehub plus membership.
