I was just posting there, and it seems pretty quiet. Do you post there or shop? I usually check it out, and I've had luck buying a few things.
-
I've done both! I agree it's been quiet!
-
@snowjewelz: Maybe with the changing of seasons people will start doing purges, that's what I did today. So many little shoes and no more babies to save them for.
-
I still check often, but it has been quiet. Since I no longer have gold, I don't post anymore.
-
@yin: Can you not post there if you don't have gold?
-
I've gotten quite a few things! But I've posted a couple things to sell in the past couple months and it's just been crickets.
-
@MenagerieMama: I love finding treasures there, so I'm bummed to see how quiet it has been. I wonder if there are any suggestions we can make to improve it?
I know I would have loved to be able to select multiple photos at a time to upload.
-
@Boogs: Only Gold members can create a classified post, so if you don't have gold you can't sell.
-
I have in the past. I wish shopping and deals were still on the main boards.
-
@youboots: this. I think when it was separated people forgot to look at the new link as much because the posts aren't as visible.
The same thing happened at my office. Used to be you could post things for sale in the kitchenettes. They made an electronic cork board and now everyone has forgotten it exists.
-
Maybe due to only members with Gold can post? I mean, I know why the stipulation is there, just saying
I can't commit to Gold at this time (Layoff) but I would have a ton of things to post!I do check it every time I log on and I have noticed the lag in posts. I'm always searching for seasonal things for DD!
-
Never look. I'm in Canada, so it's pointless!
-
I always check the classifieds. If I had gold I would post stuff. Right now it is local kid's sale season so I'm more likely to wait and shop there.
-
I think a lot of the posters who used to rock the classifieds aren't as active anymore. I bought tons from Mrs. Tiger!
-
I check it but there hasn't been much recently. I wonder if maybe they could do a "sale"and let people with a certain status and up past without gold for like two weeks? It might drive interest and also hello generate gold sales of it's worth it for those people who try it.
-
I have stuff I wouldn't mind selling but I can't justify spending $25 to post. Heck a lot I just got rid of I would have been happy to send freee for shipping cost
-
I watch but it's been so quiet. I also think it's really annoying you can't sell if you don't have Gold.
-
One thing I would maybe suggest:
Could non-gold members maybe post ISO adds? Also maybe Free Offers (maybe if buyer just wants to pay shipping)?
-
I browse but don't have anything to sell. Also most people here have older LOs now so I think there is more of a demand for toddler things than baby things.
-
I bought a pottery barn crib sheet set I had been looking at! Aside from that no, I'm from Canada and no one (mostly) wants to ship here ( and the shipping price usually isn't worth it anyways!)
-
@Cole: @T.H.O.U.: I'm going to share your thoughts! It would be nice to see that Classifieds be more active again.
-
I don't sell things because I find it a pain to ship and deal with PayPal. But I've bought a couple things...
-
@travellingbee: I've leaned some from shipping, but don't know if there's more I haven't learned yet. Usually to ship one or two small things isn't bad, it's when it's more stuff it gets tricky because the cost of shipping goes up so much.
-
@Boogs: really more it's finding time to GO to the post office and box it etc. Our local BST people just come to your house to pick up and it's so easy!
-
I browse on there now, but nothing has really caught my attention minus some sleepers I got for DD! As @Yin mentioned, I'm no longer gold so I can't post stuff for sale or ISO.
-
Nope. I'm part of a few local FB groups dedicated to buying/selling, so I prefer to use that
I can't commit to Gold at this time (Layoff) but I would have a ton of things to post!
