Saving classified ads

Is there any way to save a classified ad in a watchlist sort of like Ebay? The ads proceed quickly and drop off the end of the list. There are often ads I would like to save, but I can't see any way to do it.

Hi Don, I don't know if you can actually save a classified on here. Write the number of the classified ad you want to "watch" and on classfied there is search within this list, just type the ad number in there and it will bring it up. You can change how far back up to 90 days you can see ads. This is in your Account Menu> click Account Menu > under General> click Display Preferences> go down to classified> by default display ads placed in the last> change from what you have up to 90 days I hope this helps some. Other people on here might know a better way.:-)
Regards,Steve

Very simple....create a new folder under your "favorite links" called "ads to watch" or something like that. When you see an ad you want to keep an eye on save the url as a favorite. You can then surf directly back to that ad page with a couple clicks.

I currently have 4 particular ads I saved that are older and have not sold just in case I hit a windfall and can afford to buy smile
