Adverts with no prices

[paoloh]

Can you not insist on adverts carrying the actual price of the car/goods?

[Stuart]

Yes we can, and I agree that all cars advertised on PH should have prices. We're working on it.

Especially when they put the price down as a £1.

Stuart answered a question. But not yours.

It's not just that all cars have a price, but that they have the actual price being asked; not an 'error' which is corrected at the end of the text.

That's a tougher one, but we can work on it.

The issue is with ads which are placed on PistonHeads using automated stock feeds from some of the larger dealer groups, and where no value is submitted in the price field. It is on the development list though.

I browse the classifieds regularly. What i find is confusing is that some adverts will say '3 days' for example, the next 10 down the list might give no indication of when the advert was placed, and then the next (after these 10) might say '4 days' . Then 10 or so pages later, you get a 'standard' advert which says 2 days?

Sorry if i have not made sense, on me 3rd so am a little

The reason for this is the order in which we display the adverts.

Regardless of the way you sort the adverts, Premium Private and Dealer Classifieds will appear first. Premium Private classifieds have the days old of the advert on them and dealars do not, hence the days old appearing and going again. Then after these Premium and Dealer classifieds the Standard Private Classifieds are shown and they will then show the days old on those too.

Hope that makes sense as on my 5th

Ok Pete, thanks for explaining
