Over the last few years, nobody ever seems to have anything cool for sale in the EE, especially around the Lowcountry. Before that l, I was buying off the EE 2-3 times a month. Any theories? |

| The only issue I've had with the last two items I listed was pictures. Can only seem to upload five and then once you've uploaded you can't change them out unless you review and then go back. Kind of wonky, but I've got a few other things that need to go up soon if I stop being lazy. |

All the new format When I know I am going to be on the road somewhere, this may be what I am going to send out. I miss the days of finding good EE deals right here in SC. |

How hard is it to put a general area of where the item is in the ad? I travel throughout the state a fair bit and am normally able to meet. |

The EE has certainly taken a hit overall in recent years. I have been slow to post things that are collecting dust, may be because of the formatting in the new ad posting process. Before I had a template I could copy and paste and boom I’m done. Hosted photos on Flickr. What if there was a SC shared google sheets doc that people could drop items into? I wonder if that’s against the rules.  |

I’ve had plenty of luck selling stuff in the new EE. Yes, the format sucks and it's a little more convoluted to get stuff listed, but I haven’t really seen any difference in getting stuff gone. You may have to be a little more patient, but I wouldn’t avoid listing stuff. As the lottery folks say, you can’t win if you don’t play. |

That's my experience as well (actually, I just sold a scope tonight on the EE). I do agree though that there seems to be a lot less traffic there and I get less inquiries on my listings than I used to. |

I’ve got a custom made reloading bench I need to give away before I clean out my shed and it goes to the dumpster. It’s built to hold various Lee turret setups with dies and the powder measure installed. When I can get to it in a few weeks I guess I’ll, post an ad in the EE for pick up only. I just have no room for it in our new home since we “downsized”. |
