Does anyone else think that the classifieds, Porsche parts area has become a waste of time to find or advertise anything?

They just spam the whole thing, its bloody annoying.

I've move it to WS feedback I've also sent in a report as this is not the first time this question has been asked.

Well it's the first time I've seen a thread about it and I happen to agree, it's a pain.

been a few threads about them and everyone seems to be of the same opinion.

Have to say that since PH sold on the two or 3 occasions I've emailed to bring mods/company attention to things no-one has even bothered to acknowledge receipt or do anything....so don't bother at all anymore....

A whole bunch of us on SELOC thought the same thing in a recent thread... Douglas Valley are spamming the whole place up.

Alot of us used to go to PH as the place to go for private sportscar sales/purchase but not anymore as the classifieds are a waste of time these days trawling thru their crap (overpriced and they never answer emails/calls..but thats another thread)

I'll get the sales guys to have a word with them today and sort it out one way or the other, either they can reduce the number of ads they are posting or they can pay us significantly more money than they do now.

In the mean time if you change the trade/private dropdown at the top to 'private only' then it will filter them all out and you won't have to scroll past them.

Hope this helps, and i'll let you know later what has been decided

You know that you can filter the results to just show "private" ads and that gets rid of all of the DV stuff....

Well the solution from last time is that they are now paying the correct price for the number of adverts they are submitting, but they shouldn't be putting them in the car sections so I will give them another ring and make sure all their ads go in the parts categories where they belong.

They do the same in the TVR parts section and it has ruined the whole section. Makes it pointless and completely useless as a tool and IMO is totally against the spirit of PH.
