I placed an ad for a boat for sale a month ago and just received a notice that if I wanted to keep my ad up, I needed to renew for another $10. I wasn't expecting my ad to run forever but $10 a month for a member seems a little steep. Is this really the way it works?

Nope, something wrong. You should be able to run your ad forever (renewing it every 30, 60 or 90 days, which ever you chose originally)even paying just 10 dollars.

We need to look into that for you

Thank you. I don't remember seeing anything about the longevity of the ad when I placed it.

Its a scam Jim. Don and the club have hired Russian hackers to improve revenue. Good catch. Now, I just need to answer that email from AL, he is in a prison in Uganda, and lost his wallet. I am wirring him 20K as he asked for. We should all chip in, he has a grandfather that is a general and worth millions and its all ours. Wow, Als grandpa must be old!

Matt it was Lower Slobovia, not Uganda. I threatened to take a shower and shave so they kicked me out.

Bob, the ZIPPER deal fell through. All the one-way ones were recalled.

All, keep an eye on Trading Dock. Good deals come and go quickly.

John, Slobovia's not bad; just don't go to Lower Slobovia. Being a slob is one thing but taking it to the next level down..., well ya just don't want to go there. Good to be back.

Just peeked at Trading Dock, there are some good deals listed.

I understand, Matt. There is one that, well actually 2 that... Oh, just one more look; there may be more that need me, that are begging my attention like a cute puppy at the animal rescue center saying "take me home, please".

Got to go, wife is coming...
