I used to be excited to look every morning at the new 928 adds all in one place, but a couple of weeks ago no new adds were showing up. Anyone know if they shut down?

People develop, think it will mean something or make money, and then stop when it doesn't. The internet is a wasteland of that.

Or one cease and desist on the right letterhead.

I see the site is still there, but there would often be 5-10 new cars on there every morning. I have not seen a new add on there in a few weeks. It no longer seems to be updating. The amount of "All Cars" I see for sale today is 155. the number used to be higher and increase every day.

Can't see why he stopped, given all the love he was given on the site here

Granted the site admin was a little cagey at first which earned him some abuse but I liked the site overall. I made many purchases because of it and never had a spam or scam from using it. It was simply a pass thru site.

I can't remember specifics, but I think this is the guy who got his parts car creamed by the snowplow last winter?
He was pretty active on the other forum.
