H,

if I'm not mistaken, eBay started offering a 'classifieds' system a couple of years back. Intended for cheap items and local pickup only, it worked quite well and I sold various things quite successfully.

I noticed that the last couple of times I went into eBay Classifieds, you end up on Gumtree - at least over here in WA you do. So it looks as if eBay probably bought them out.

Anyone else experienced this?

I don't know why anyone even bothers with that place. It is a festering breeding ground for scammers.
