Yeh- but just don't expect them to get the ad posted up as soon as you think !!

Twice I have had to e mail PH about my adverts not appearing. Response was " a bug in the system for Members' Free adverts" !!

Your ad is live. If you have any problems finding it, let me know and I can send you the link.

My ad submitted Monday evening is not showing, despite having the 'its live' email confirmation and link:

http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/motorbikes/...

Can you fix it please?

Mine's vanished. A purchaser found the advert rang me and now it's gone from the website. Even better, my account doesn't exist, even though the site sent me an email a while ago confirming that the advert was live.

So now I can't reactivate the (vanished) advert, as I no longer exist and my purchaser can't check the details online.

Quality.

I've been told there is an issue which is being sorted and the fix will be live on Thursday. Again, I'm sorry.

I'm not complaining too much as after all it is free advertising currently. But I presume that is because PH wish to build traffic to the bike classifieds so people will want to pay, so clearly this needs sorting.

My ad for my 2014 r1200 gsa went live last night, woke up this morning to an email from a scammer ( mullen wagner)offering full asking price but wants to pay through Paypal. Is apparently deaf and in a wheelchair (perfect for a motorbike)

It's free and I am gratefull.

But . . . free only gets you three photos.

I put my Ducati Monster up for 2 lots of 30 days and the only response was Mullen Wagner (the deaf, wheel-chair bound scammer).

With more photos it sold in a week on the Auto-Trader.

Ha ha,, You've got to love Mullen Wagner for his gall... Glad it wasn't just me and that you've managed to sell it to a proper buyer..

Jesus Christ. I thought I'd have a quick look for bikes under 2k, and had to wade through nearly 3 solid pages of "BIKES BOUGHT FOR CASH!!!!" like this one:

Is there any way to filter st like this out? Makes me want to not bother with PH next time.

So who's in charge of this these days?

I put a motorbike ad in yesterday afternoon & it still isn't showing in the listing ??

As much as I appreciate the free service...come on Pistonheads IT chappies it can't be rocket science to you guys..
Even Gumtree got the same (free) ad up quicker..
Grrr.
