Just realised this weekly feature has disappeared. What became of it?
As long as Shed keeps his weekly wittering going every Friday, I always thought the two features could be similar in their outcomes to the new owners, although you stood to risk a few more £££ with some of the pills.

I think it was probably canned as suggesting that you have to be brave to buy something from the PH classifieds isn't a popular notion with the cash-hungry owners of PH, who have sought to drive traffic to the classifieds at the expense of everything else on the site.

Seems a bit silly because we all know that some cars and houses come with big bills and some of us are attracted to those.

I agree, it’s a shame. Like all things for profit, they often lose sight of what made them popular in the first place. Not that I’m suggesting PH auctions and classifieds are profitable and I find other auction sites have more interesting stuff on them.

Brave Pill and Shed were the only two great articles on here. Shed still going strong.
Apart from a cursory glance at the home page, I mostly go straight to the forums. Probably not what the new owners want of me, but hey ho.

Brave Pill was dumb as the pills were rarely brave and when they were actually brave the writer spent most of the article explaining why it wasn’t so brave after all.
