BUY & SELL - No 'dealers' !!!

    As a family of 5 with 5 cars, we've used Buy & Sell in the past to sell things including the cars when we change them.

    Now B&S are refusing to place car ads because they say we're 'dealers', seemingly a household can only sell 3 cars a year before being classified as a 'dealer' ! WHAT Car dealer sells less than say 25 cars / year, you wouldn't stay in business long if you only sold 5 cars / year !!!!!

    Gas thing is I then rang the B&S 'Commercial' section to ask about 'a car dealer' placing an ad . They said that 5 ads /year wouldn't be enough, better to ring the B&S free ads dept !!!!!!!!

    They don't know their ass from their elbow in B&S !

    I know the b&s are bs. I put an ad on the 2/7/08 yesterday 5/8/08 they sent me an email saying that the ad was put on hold because it didn't comply with their editorial policy. The ad was selling round bales of hay. I emailed them yesterday for an explanition and got no reply yet. Also why wait over a month to inform me.

    hello:
    Obviously B&S has been effective in the past in helping you to sell cars.
    If you just use a telephone contact number not previously used in any of the ads that you have placed, I would expect that your difficulty would be overcome.
