Just add €5 to the asking price of the car if you're that upset about it

It's still cheap for what it is... but its a fair old jump in price at the same time. Still though, its the only way to sell a car.

Jese, I know its a recession but seriously, they are still cheaper, by a huge amount, then any other car sales website and are still the best place, again, by some distance to get your car viewed.

Its a moot complaint IMO.

Jesus lads, I know it's a great site and all but to suddenly jump 66% in price without any improvements on the site (Such as removing retards who use search terms)


If they may sort out that ****e, I'd have no trouble paying the extra... BUT charging more for a service which hasn't been improved?

But on adverts all you're offered is a stick of juicy fruit and a Rover 200 as a p/x on whatever you're selling.
