Re: Etiquette Regarding Bumping WTB / WTS Ads In the Classifieds Section??
Oh, sorry... I thought WTS was Want To Sell. Regarding WTB ads (and WTT ads too). I abitrarily selected 2 weeks as a good interval for bumping my own WTB ads. That is based on nothing at all except an attempt to acquire what I need and not be annoying.

Hey Brian... You're right I did post about WTS ads also. I intended to place strong emphasis on WTB but I failed to state that clearly. If other folks think that two weeks is a more proper interval for bumping ads then I'll respect that. But... gee whiz... it'll try my impatient nature. :)

I generally bump my FS threads a couple of times a month, and WTBs once a month.
After all, the only reason for doing so is to attract new viewers.
Folks who have already seen it won't look again; it just clutters things up.
There are a couple of sellers here who bump every day, sometimes more often.
I wouldn't buy from them if I had to go without.

Ouch... every two weeks then. Will I make enemies if I push bumping my "WTB" ads to once per week? :D

I doubt it.

Personally I think a WTB bump is just as important as a FS bump. Ideally, there would be two separate sections, as in APUG. Sellers and Buyers get to look through their own sections.
But I don't like when a commerce-driven seller gets mad because his ad get's pushed down by a photographer that is desperately trying to get an item he needs to take photographs. Often the seller's price is wrong, the item is not desired, or whatever, but we get bumps to the top every day or two. Meanwhile, a person looking to buy an item is expected to ask once, then get out of the way for sellers, many who sell dozens of items each month.
My general rule is to bump a for sale item about once a week. I see no reason why one cannot do the same with a WTB.

I can live with once per week... seems reasonable.
