Hi Chris
Don't you think that the Wanted section has really developed into the quickest moving section in JT, and despite it being an ''afterthought'' it really is very popular..On many occasions I have looked through the wanted section only to realise I have an item that someone wants, but never thought about giving it as it was probably stuffed in the back of a wardrobe or in the attic....but that wanted Add reminded me that I had an item that someone needed....if you get my meaning....
I think maybe ''The Managers'' should move with the times and allow a re-vamp of the wanted section.....
I have seen my add in the wanted section end up 7 or 8 pages down only a few hours after bumping it....So in reality That section has a lot of traffic....
Anyway at the end of the day ''Stuff ''is still finding it's way to new owners..
I love The Wanted section....Come on The Managers...
Best Wishes
