Are Classified Advertisements still available?
I clicked the link, it took me to the store. I searched, and couldn't find any Classified Advertisement purchase options. I am interested in pricing for now.
2nd question if these are available: Would I be allowed to sell tobacco-smoking / herb-vaping related items? I make ceramic pipes; water pipes; rigs; carb caps, etc. All items are brand new, and offered for sale with intent of legal uses only. (Tobacco; CBD; Delta 8; etc.)
Thanks in advance!

Hey, I'm sorry, classified ads were discontinued several years ago. Can I ask where you saw the link?

Certainly! I saw it under the Marketplace Rules, I think number 5 maybe. (Edit: And number 6. I know they're not numbered like that, but you get the idea.)
That's unfortunate, I can't find anywhere good to sell online. Thank you for the reply!!!

Ah, thanks for pointing that out, I've fixed the outdated references.
Yeah, I'm sorry classifieds are no longer available. I felt that they was a good way for enterprising members to get started with small businesses and there were some cool products advertised. But historically we've had trouble finding credit card processors due to our content, and now that we have one we have to be very careful with compliance. Classified ads were problematic because a lot of listings were for items in legally gray areas (eg. Mimosa Hostilis Root Bark) and we realized we'd have to add a lot more restrictions and manual oversight to make sure classifieds don't break any rules and put our account at risk. This would move them away from the "quick, easy, cheap, self-service" option we were envisioning, and since classifieds were never a particularly popular option anyway, we ended up just dropping them. But I've noted your interest, and we may re-evaluate our ability to offer these types of ads in the future. Sorry again and good luck with your business!

I completely understand. I'm so glad the shroomery is here, I would be devastated if anything happened to it.
