Hi all. I put this suggestion here so we don't clog up the parts listings on the classified forum. I think it would be a great improvement if the parts that are actually eBay listings be segregated into their own section of the classifieds.
Reason- Some poor slob places his ad for a part he wants to sell on his own, then whamo, along comes a dump of eBay listings on top of his ad. Within a couple of hours his ad has dropped so far down the list due to eBay dumps that few members will notice it. There are some days when practically every ad in the top 50 or so are eBay ads.
So, why don't we give actual member ads a chance to get the exposure they deserve by having a separate listing for those ads and a separate listing for eBay ads? If there is a consensus, perhaps the site admins will think its a good idea too and make the necessary adjustments.
Thanks for listening.

They already are separate in their own sub forum. Works great.

It is one of the rules in the classifieds to begin your ad WTB or FS and then the items description. How hard is to do that.

I guess I got confused with the "Latest Classified Items" that comes up on the Home Page. There everything is lumped together. I did not realize the "FS/WTB" section did not include eBay items.

The hompage shows the latest from *all* classified forums (except the Craigslist RSS feeds) ...
