Trading Post seems pretty much dead nowadays, and filled mostly with rip-off dealer ads in the categories I searched; gumtree.com.au is much more active, and carsales.com.au for cars. Telstra/Sensis were monumentally stupid to pay $636 million for it back in 2004 (I said so at the time).
site sucks
It's a little better than it once was (a few years ago), as I recall it.
BUT it's got a VERY SHORT TIME-OUT period, so if you want to compose some compact, persuasive text (eg, in the description), BE QUICK or be prepared to do it all over later…
On that basis - since my time is valuable - I will vote this deal NEGATIVE, it NOT a deal.
I agree, that Gumtree is MUCH better all round. (Of course, it has its sham operators, too;
and I recently saw a warning to vendors, suggesting that you can get calls round the clock,
presumably cranks…? He didn't suggest turning off the mobile phone to preclude such calls
becoming disturbances. :-/
In Brisbane you get 5 lines of free advertising in the Saturday Courier Mail all year round…
