currency of sale list in files
Yahoo Message Number: 24627
Are units listed for sale in the files section deleted when sold? (assuming that the lister tells you?)  Given there are several listed, but knowing that typically LD's sell within a short time, I am trying to figure out if there is any point pursuing any of these (especially the ones listed in the spring.)  Thanks for any guidance!

 Unfortunately, unless the moderators are informed, there is no way to know whether they are ripe for deletion.

Steve,
 Perhaps you might want make a policy to put a 1 or 2 month limit, and then delete them after that time?  If the LD is still available, the poster could re-post.

Just an idea.

 I'm thinking that since these rigs typically sell within days or weeks, we could safely delete any listings over six months old. What do you think?

I was doing something similar once - just need to keep up on it, I guess. Same would apply to those looking, though - if an ad is old, either the unit is no longer available, or is likely in bad shape, overpriced, etc.

Why not make it 3 months.  If the seller still has it for sale, he/she will probably contact the site again.
