Here lately ive been looking at larger items not so close to me and have been having to ask if they are available for shipping or pickup only.

I know its no big deal to email and ask but if there was an option when placing an ad just like there is for payment types (payapl,cash,ect) maybe have a pickup only or available for shipping boxes you can check and show up in the ad under payments.

I just think it will cut down on emails just asking about shipping.Thanks for listening.

I always thought the default was someone would ship unless the ad says "Pick up only".

That's what I have done in the past.

More feedback welcome.

if someone places an ad in the classifieds, i have always presumed they are willing to ship that item unless the description specifically says "no shipping", "pick up only" or something similar.

if i don't want to ship something, i always make it a point to say "no shipping" in the ad. does that stop people from asking if i will ship, even if i say i won't? of course not.

ditto -- if I am reading an ad that doesn't state specifically that shipping is not an option, I assume that the seller is gonna ship it...

and, if I am posting an item for sale, I always note if I will ship or not...
