Below is some information that might help you use and understand how this site works. If you can't find your answers here, please
contact me and I would be more then happy to help out when I can.
Do I have to register to post an ad?
The answer is simple. No. Guest can post ads on the site. However, we encourage you to
sign up before posted. With an account, you will have the ability to log into your control panel and instantly edit any information from the ad you posted.
Can I post other things besides Oldsmobiles?
Uhh... read the domain name. No, you can't post anything besides Oldsmobiles. If you are really love this site but have a crush on another car brand, contact me about launching this site for other manufactures.
How do I post an ad?
Its pretty simple. Just go to the
post ad page. and fill out the form as with as much detail about your car as possbile. The next page is where you will be able to upload pictures. You can upload up to 20. You can select multiple pictures from your computer at once. As a note, the first picture on the list will be the one generated as your thumbnail so we suggest to make it your best one. When you are done uploading pictures, you will be brought to the third page to input your contact information and to set how long you want the contact information to be displayed.
Can we donate you money?
I can't believe this is on the FAQ list?? But as a matter of fact, you can donate to the Oldsmobilecentral.com cause securely via
paypal. We also accept Bitcoin (1Js53QkXx4TK3wQdWGaUfY82YmzCQTAywR)! If you don't know what that is, don't bother. I built this site for free and definitely put a lot of time into it. Thanks in advance! Any amount is definitely appreciated. 100% of proceeds go straight into helping my Oldsmobile get all fixed up.
I found problems with the site, how can I report them?
This is my first site I build from scratch with PHP and mySQL. It would be a miracle if there weren't any problems and we would appreciate if you could fill out this
contct form to report them to me.
How does this voting system work?
Users can either give deals or ads shown a thumbs up or thumbs down to rate how much of a deal the cars actually are. Anyone can do it and registration is not required. Just decide what you think of the deal and vote it up or down depending on your decision. Once you cast your vote, it is final. Users can vote on any item once a day.
Can I get contact information from an expired ad?
Here are OldsmbileCentral.com, we take the privacy of our users very seriously.
The default ad life for the contact information is 2 weeks. Once the ad has expired,
there is no way to retrieve the contact information from my site.
However, you can try to follow the "web souce" link under the title to see if the original ad source is still posted.
Sometimes the email addresses or phone numbers can be found there. You can also try to post a comment on the ad page to see if the seller comes back to see if their was interest. Why do expired
ads remain posted? We leave the actual content online so users can see what deals where available where and in their difference conditions. We use this data to calculated a more real idea of
what these are worth.
