Help: What it costs to advertise and how you can pay

The cost of your ad depends on what you’re selling, and how much you’re asking for it. Some categories are completely free. In most categories, items priced at $500 or less are free to list. And under the Tradingpost.com.au Good As Gone Guarantee, if your item doesn't sell in 4 weeks, we'll refund the cost of your ad.
