    What ever happened to ebay's free classified add section ?

    There used to be an icon to click on for free local classifieds, but I can't seem to find it. Does anyone know if ebay still allows posting of free local classified adds?

    There used to be a tab on my "my ebay" home page that linked me to the classifieds. Now I have to go all over the web to view ebay classifieds? Seems like a pretty poor set up. Not to mention that search results contain a lot of extra crap that doesn't come close to what I entered in the search block. Never used to be that way before. Looks like ebay is going down the crapper.

    I never even knew ebay had classifieds until i joined this site. Its not really advertised from what i see. I dont bother to even go on it since i can never find anything i want.
    Only way i ever got to it was from google, or typing the link directly in. Never saw that tab.

    I can find the classifieds by clicking on the "advanced" search tab and scrolling down to the correct tab. I guess the classifieds tab on my ebay home page was too easy to suit ebay's liking.

    The problem was eBay wasn't making money on them, so they just kinda pushed them off to the side on the last site revamp.

    I never used them anyway, nothing local, nothing interesting. Craigslist is far better for that use.

    I completely agree.
