deleted ad

I placed an ad under catadioptric telescopes on 2-23-12. On 3-3-12, I discovered it was missing and entered it again. I confirmed the ad under "My Classifieds". Today, 3-6-12 - it has disappeared again from the classifieds, and both ads now fail to show up under "My Classifieds". Now I'm concerned becuase my same ad last year (OCT 2011) shows 941 hits without a single message ever appearing in my inbox. I don't have time to chase this any farther. I was told this telescope should have sold right away on Astromart at this price. There are 48 successful ads for catadioptrics. How can I prevent my ad from disappearing?

Something about your ad must not meet the TOS......

1. Personal info in the ad like phone#, address etc

2. Posting duplicate ads in multiple catagories, as I understand it, its one ad per item per day.

3. Didnt have a realistic asking price or none at all, there is an auction section for taking offers.

There are probably one or two more....see the TOS, but I know those will result in the ad being deleted

Personal information in an ad will get it deleted. Phone numbers, URLs, email addresses etc. Also, a price has to be stated or it must go into the auction section. My educated guess is that you have SOMETHING in your ad(s) that is against the Terms of Service. shocked
