Over the past few weeks and months this is appearing in classifieds and the items posted are being completely deleted.

Lets just clarify this.

If the item is withdrawn just place withdrawn as you would if sold.The post is not to be removed as it does count toward your quota of items anyway.If its advertised it is still a post and just because its sold elsewhere or you decide your keeping it,the post has been made.

Sold adverts remains along with price and marked Sold in heading or at the bottom or top of ad

withdrawn adverts remains along with price and marked withdrawn in heading or at the bottom or top of ad

Any questions ,please feel free to contact by PM.
