Marking items as sold
If you’re selling your item in a Classified ad you need to remove your ad after you’ve received payment from the buyer.
Marking your item as sold will remove it from tradingpost.com.au and from the Trading Post Paper if your ad appears there.
This is useful if:
- your items sells prior to the ad expiry date
- you wish to minimise the responses from buyers immediately.
It’s best to wait until after you’ve received payment for the item, just in case the buyer withdraws their offer to purchase the item.
When will the ad be removed?
Your ad will be removed from the tradingpost.com.au once you report the item sold.
How do I mark my item as sold?

Note: There are no charges for removing your Classified ad as sold. Please note that all charges on these screens total $0.00 and no additional funds will be taken from your registered credit card.
