Surely a compromise would be to allow one bump per week or something?


Try Lumsdens or FB marketplace.

Just cut and paste then relist. Takes seconds.
Once relisted delete the original post to avoid confusion..

If you are running a business selling items then please enquire about advertising, and do not use the buy and sell forum.

Also "bumping" a post is no longer allow due to several members spamming the forum with hundreds of unnecessary bumps.

Please can members press the Report button on and posts breaking these rules, and the offenders will be warned and may even be banned if they ignore the warnings.

Thank you.


Not before time IMO. :text-thankyouyellow:

I really don't see the problem.
Seriously this is someone just trying to sell a few items. No indication its a shop or business.
Yes a minor breach of rules, but come on, are they really doing any harm?
