    I have a sold a few things here on TB, and bought a few more. Right now, I have a few pedals listed and i just got an alert that someone sent an offer on one using the "make offer" button on my listing. I've never seen this before, so i had a few questions. If i accept it: what happens? am i...

    Reminders to leave classifieds feedback

    I would love to see a feature that reminds a user to leave feedback some number of days (maybe 14) after a classified ad is marked Sold. It's easy to forget but I always get around to it, even if it's a few months late. A lot of folks forget completely though - I haven't received feedback in...

    Inadvertent multiple ad postings due to timeout notifications

    I tried posting an ad (https://www.talkbass.com/classifieds/atelier-z-zpo-4-jr-short-scale-bass.1656000/), and kept getting timeouts, so, thinking that the post failed, I repeatedly clicked on "Save", and now there are three duplicates of this ad. Can they be removed?

    Classifieds - location

    Given the increasing costs of shipping wouldn't it be good if TB Classified ads all showed their location in the ad title? Even better a geographical sort feature. Just saying.

    Sort Classifed ads by thread creation date, not "Last Message"

    This is a modest request to have the thread creation timestamp, rather than the "Last Message" timestamp, as the default sort order criterion for Classified ads. Far too many ad replies are trivial ("GLWTS!!"), inconsequential, or flat-out off-topic ("Hey bro, how ya doin?"). Random replies...

    Classifieds for non USA members

    Just a comment as I have discontinued my long standing supporting membership due to the very low level of activity in double bass buy and sell. If I am to pay $5 monthly I need to know my listings will be noticed. Just noting that the last listing in International was in October! I’d be happy to...

    Sunday TB Classifieds

    To my fellow Olds: Remember back in the newsprint day when the Sunday classifieds were the best of the week? Anyone else notice it’s the same way on TB? It is one of the pleasures of the week to see the surge of quality gear go on the block. Great marketplace experience, albeit without the...

    Analysis of used bass prices on TalkBass Classifieds

    A recent post stated that used bass prices are high these days, maybe too high. Many replies followed, some agreeing, some disagreeing. I don't have any historical data, but that thread gave me the idea to look at the first 150 listings of used basses here on TalkBass as of about 1 hour ago...

    Double Bass WTB Shen SB150 or Similar Hybrid

    I am a music education student at UNC Greensboro and I am looking to buy a nice hybrid bass for around $2,000 - 2,500. I’m actually a trombone student who plays bass guitar as a secondary, but I played a little bit of double bass in high school. I’ve started playing bass with one of my schools...

    Unwritten rules for buying/selling in the TB classifieds??

    I've been buying and selling in the TB classifieds for a couple of years now. During that time I've noticed certain trends that affect the way I approach gear, no matter which side of the deal I'm on. Obviously, a seller and buyer should deal honestly and not misrepresent themselves or their...

    Supporting member having classified issue, where to post

    I don't know if this is the appropriate forum but if the mods could put it in the correct place, I'll do my best Bill Lumbergh impersonation from Office Space and say "m'kayy, that'd be great." :D I want to post a "Wanted" ad in the classifieds. I signed up as a supporting member to do so...

    Is TalkBass not a great marketplace anymore?

    So, I just sold another bass on Craigslist. That makes three in the last six months that I have first listed here on TalkBass, only to deal with low ball offers along with other frustrating things. In all three cases the bass guitars sold for my asking price within a couple of days of the...

    How do you pay on classified ad sites(in the US)?

    I've been thinking of buying some stuff in the US (I'm myself from Ukraine, going to use forwarding company services). With ebay or reverb everything is clear, but recently I turned my attention to classified ads. For such transactions, here most of the time we use cash on delivery with a...

    If this feature is already available just teach me how to use it and I'll go away. :cool: This is nit picking, I know. The forum is laid out very well and navigation is truly easy. I'm wondering how difficult it would be to implement a search in the classifieds using geography. For instance...

    Are the TB classifieds less active than they used to be?

    I've been gone for a handful of years and am getting the sense that the TB classifieds are less active/effective than they used to be? Is this the case...or is it a false perception on my part?

    Question about WTB classifieds

    It says that all members can post, but only supporting members can see the ads. I understand the concept. But my question is, if I post a WTB thread, will the supporting members be able to see it and pm me? I do plan to become a supporting member at some point when I have more time to surf the...

    Suggestion for Classifieds For Sale: Bass Guitars by string count

    I have noticed some handy filters at the top of the Bass Guitars For Sale page. I was wondering if we could also have a quick filter according to string count (i.e. 4-strings, 5-strings, & 6+ strings). As a sample, I've attached a mock-up of the idea in mind:

    Classifieds time stamp issue

    Browsing through the BG Classifieds and I noticed that the time of "last message" isn't really when the last reply to a thread was, it's when the thread was last bumped. Realized this when it said the last message on a thread was me 14 minutes ago when the last reply to the thread was 10 days ago.
