Classifieds reorganisation

We've just done the second stage of this - the for sale and wanted topics are gone, and we've replaced them with a For Sale / Wanted category, with topics for various types of item you might want to buy / sell. They should show up at the bottom of the main topic lists on this page.

If you have any questions, please let us know.

Ta.

Those of you who just paid and didn't appear to get authorized - sorry about that - they all should have gone through now so do try again. If you have any problems, drop us a note.

Thanks and sorry for the trouble.

yes it's really worthwhile (and helpful to those that want to buy a few cheap baby/child bits) going to ebay and paying their fees, plus paypal fees to sell something for £5 inc P&P.....

Can't afford CAT right now so that's me definitely off those threads......

I need to get to my wanted and for sale thread.
I also don't have a card to pay CAT fee.

debbie102 · 27/02/2008 16:47

If you havent a credit or debit card how are you supposed to subscribe to cat, ive been asking for the paypal facility to be added, this is a bit out of order doing it this way and not warning anyone, really, people has sales going though and needed to contact people dont you think this was a little unfair. yes i use the boards and yes i was going to subscribe to cats but havent been given a chance to do so, cause no card .

laughalot · 27/02/2008 16:46

Me too iv just paid by credit card and cannot access

ClareVoiant · 27/02/2008 16:40

hi tech, also cannot access after subscribing. please help....

MrsBadger · 27/02/2008 16:40

rofl that there is no Prams/buggies section

was that deliberate, Tech?

Hnybnch · 27/02/2008 16:39

Tech I have just subscribed with dp's debit card and it's still not letting me on for sale etc??

My email is [email protected] if you could help me please

Lulumama · 27/02/2008 16:37

selfish?? this is not Ebay, which i believe, is the whole point !

PotPourri · 27/02/2008 16:36

Oh, and one final bit of feedback, surely we need a section that says prams/buggies. That is at least half of what is advertised (mind you, not sure if that will continue once scammers are off!)

hunkermunker · 27/02/2008 16:35

Can you put a link to a main page with just those talk topics on ^^ up there somewhere, Tech? [requests moon on stick as well]

Or actually, don't - I don't really care one way or the other!

DualCycloneCod · 27/02/2008 16:33

i ve put an advert in the for sale

Tech · 27/02/2008 16:33

Oh sorry, they've gone. I just meant to make them not allow new threads. Will put old ones back for now.....

PotPourri · 27/02/2008 16:32

PLEASE let us have access to the old for sale just for a couple of days (you could block any new messages - so we need to CAT). At least we could see who the sellers were. I had a few things that I was making arrangements on, but did not take note of the sellers names...

I also think that having a classified section that does not have for sale/wanted in it doesn't make much sense. I.e. move it all into one section (toys reunited IS wanted really, fedback is def related to sales), and/or move the remainder (charity/non mumsnet requests etc into something like other adverts. Or in fact, just move them into other section...

hunkermunker · 27/02/2008 16:31

Post that you want Wanted in Wanted, please

Well done, MNHQ. MUCH better!

Fimbo · 27/02/2008 16:31

I read the first bit and thought it had gone altogther and started to cheer, and then saw the next bit.

emma57573 · 27/02/2008 16:31

Oh ok £5 a year I can live with that I still want the wanted page though!

ClareVoiant · 27/02/2008 16:30

ok, made my cat payment do i need to do anything else as it wont let me past the cat payment page?

PenelopePitstops · 27/02/2008 16:29

emma57573 · 27/02/2008 16:28

So do we have to pay to list now? How much does it cost? also what happened to the Wanted section, I liked reading through them
