Just checked it out now. Will maybe take some time to adjust to new format. One of the best new features is the inclusion of a location (county).
Previously you were lucky if the provence was listed. If the seller listed more than one provence it showed up as Rep of Ireland -not helpful.

Hope this also improves the rate at which they actually post your car on the site - Sometimes it takes quite a while - other times it doesn't seem to happen at all.

They were quite poor on that front when I was selling the GR. I'm inclined to think that they mess around the free ad users in an effort to get them to pay for 'premium ads'. That said I guess you get what you pay for.
If I received the same level of service as a paying customer I'd be very upset.

Top marks for the new buyandsell.ie site :roll: NOT

- They didn't take any time to convert across existing ads that had already been submitted ( I had some in there - now all gone )

- If you were previously a registered member for placing ads - they have not coverted across the usernames and passwords - need to go through full registration again. Nice touch !!

2/10
