If I click on "Manage My Ads" I get to an error page which tells me the address is invalid.

Likewise, I'm trying to edit my ad to drop the asking price of the 911 by a grand but I can't get the edit page to load.

Try clearing your cookies and managing your ad again.
That error seems to indicate a cookie issue.

I can't figure out why either of you are having problems, but my thinking is there is a character in the text of your advert that isn't being parsed properly. It's usually the & character, but neither of you have that. The 911 advert is extremely long, so that might have something to do with it.

I'll look a bit more, but probably won't be able to figure it out until tomorrow. If you want, for now, I can lower the 911 ad by £1,000 if you want me to.

Yes please, reduce the car by a grand.

Thanks.

Just had a thought... you could delete both of my ads if you want. I was only going in to mark them as SOLD anyway.

Thanks.

Nay bother. smile

Both of you should be set. Though, Huntsman... it will take a few hours for the cache to pick up on the new price.
