I posted this ad (http://www.ehmac.ca/vbclassified.php?do=ad&id=86) about 2 months ago, marked it "Sold" about 6 weeks ago, and today the ad has magically reappeared with "Time Left" of 1 month & 29 days (as of 16:30, April 29).
:confused:

Did an admin accidentally repost it?

Thank you,
Arne

No, but I did wonder why a couple of ads marked "sold" showed up, without realizing they were old.

Ad was never marked as sold (More than just putting "sold" in the title), and the option to "Relist Until Sold" was selected with ad was created.

Aha! And oops. Didn't realize I had selected "Relist Until Sold". Other than manually typing "Sold", what is the proper way to mark an ad as "Sold"? Or do I just click on "Close the ad"?

IIRC in the old Classifieds, after the item was sold, the ad remained, was marked "Sold", and included the selling price. I found that a convenient source for getting a feel for prices.

Thank you for the info.

And now we have NoodleBoys's backback ad popping to the top of the classified section every day, even though it is sold, because it was marked to expire in 24 hours ...
