"I'm sorry, but the ad you submitted...

...has been deleted. Some reasons for ad deletions include:

- Ads that were partially uploaded/incomplete
- Extremely poor quality/images (impossible to make out the image itself)
- Ads that did not conform to our published site contribution and usage guidelines such as offensive
- Ads which were not paid for after submission"

Huh ?

I don't get it, since none of the above seem to fit. The Ads are 2 weeks old, and some items have Sold.
So, what gives ? Anyone else have this happen ? 😱

Yes, I received the same email last night. I had two ads and both items were sold.

Maybe this is some massive purge of the Database, but doesn't come with an adequate explanation. Seems a bit unfair since some of the UnSold items are still available, and may yet hold some interest for others.
Glad I'm not alone. Was beginning to get a little paranoid there...🙁

What happened???

What happened???

I had two ads dropped last night:

One ad for a lens that just sold yesterday and that I had marked as "SOLD"

The other ad I put up yesterday for another. This one is upsetting becuase I had some real interest in the lens. The disappearance of the ad angered one person who was attempting negotiation.

What now? Do we try to put these ads back up?

This is covered in another thread - it was "computer error". PM a mod. They are offering refunds for the ads. Only happened to ads for lenses for some reasons.

Seems like someone could send an explanation/apology/free ad for the inconvenience...instead I get no reply at all to my emails...

 

[wray]

Yep, same thing happened to me!
