barkin Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 I've noticed some sold threads in the marketplace are now locked. I'm guessing this is part of the new paid-for ad scheme (which I thoroughly agree with, btw) although it appears to also be the case for some that were started prior to its introduction. Is this intended behaviour? What if (say) an item is considered sold, and is marked as such and locked, only for the sale to fall through? Can the tread be reopened, or would the OP need to place another ad - and possibly incur another fee if they've not gone the 20 quid all-you-can-eat option? Cheers.

andydye Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Mods can lock and unlock threads I believe so if the sale falls through a quick pm should sort out the unlocking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icastle Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Yes, we are locking threads when the item has been sold. If a sale falls through then just let any mod or Administrator know and we'll happily unlock it for you - it takes just a couple of seconds to do. No need to pay again or start writing you ad from the beginning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barkin Posted March 7, 2013 Author Share Posted March 7, 2013 Okey-dokey...cheers. I only noticed when I couldn't reply to a question posted in a 'sold' thread after the item was sold but before it was locked - had to PM instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
