Fees on adverts.ie

Brian2011 · 2014-05-22 22:44:01

I see that adverts.ie is now charging fees for items that are sold with an asking price of €30 and above. But was thinking that people will just not bother to mark their items as sold in order to avoid the fees. Surely they would have known this would happen?

It's a business not a charity.

"Success fees" do not apply to advertisers that offer a service. That service could be worth thousands.

Is not a fair pricing structure in my opinion.
