15$ subscription

Hi..I have a question...I was an Astromart member for many Years ,then one day I got the old account closed ,and received notice of old free accounts needed to be upgraded to basic, one-year 15$ subscriptions in order to access the system and use the site..It took a while to upgrade because i live in Spain and dont use the classifieds ,that by the way is my main interest in this site...I finally upgraded and got a package with 40 free ads to use in the year..all good,I like to search the classifieds this time of year,prior to my annual trip to the USA ,in search of some equipment.But today i got a message from astromart ,urging me to upgrade to a less basic account and explaining the benefits of my recent (less than a month old)subscription..one of such benefits is the instant access to classifieds...FOR A MONTH..not a year,,A MONTH of INSTANT access to classifieds...can anyone explain the meaning of this?.Will i have access to the classifieds after that month,even if not instant?..I can wait a couple of minutes if this is what this is about...
Thanks and best regards to all..

The $15 subscription is good for one year and includes the 40 ads you may post. It also includes one month of "supporter" access. A $15 "subscriber's" normal access includes a 4 hr delay in being able to see NEW ads. You will still see them but not until 4 hrs after they are posted.

"Supporters" are those who contribute more to the cause and the delay in seeing ads is removed. You can also choose to have new ads emailed to you as they are posted. There are several levels of "supporters" ranging from 1 month to 3, 6 or 12 months....with a lifetime option as well.

You received 12 months of "subscriber" access and 1 month of "supporter" access. At the end of that 1st month you will still have access to the ads but there will be a 4 hr delay and you wont be able to have them emailed to you......That is my understanding of how it works.
