Hey guys,
I understand that ads get removed after a certain time, and that, as a non-subscriber, I can only post an ad in each category every 7 days. My question is, is there a way to retrieve a post that has been removed after it's been removed? Specifically, I have a post in which I was selling GW mini's, and had sold quite a bit. I wanted to re-post that ad, as it had been kept up-to-date as things sold so I wouldn't have to go back and re-inventory everything.
Is there a way to retrieve my old ad?
Thanks a bunch!
If this is a cash deal, buyer will pay 1/2 agreed price + actual shipping prior to the items being shipped (regardless of whether I am buying or selling, I feel this is the fairest way to share the risk of a cash deal-if this bothers you, please shop elsewhere)
Buyer will pay all actual shipping.
I live in Canada, so be aware of that before we finalize a deal.
If this is a trade, lowest rating ships first!
Still waiting for feedback from:

You would need to PM Plarz on that.. but the general thought is.. Nope.

Once the system has pruned an ad, there is no backup taken. Gone is gone

If you don't have your Location listed in your User Control Panel, why not take a second and update it? It will let your trading partners know where you are from the beginning.

I use the Unofficial Porkuslime Trading Guidelines - if you have way less refs.. you ship first.

Best way to do this is make you add in microsoft word or the apple equivalent. As things sell, edit the post here and on word. After 7 days, repost what you have in word.
In an act of kindness and respect, please respond to PMs one way or the other with in a timely manner.

PMing him is a waste of time. It cannot be retrieved. The only way to retrieve a post that has fallen off is to roll back the entire site to a time when it was here, and that would mean we lose EVERYTHING done in that time period.

Lower rating? You ship first.

I think what this situation needs is some imagination.
