    Marketplace Split Poll

    After years of requests to break down the marketplace forums geographically I'm kind of surprised to see several responses saying leave it as is.

    So, let's see what the Community says!

    Split. Northern vs southern, option to cross post if willing to ship. My 2 cents

        Why not an option that allows you set a distance from your location and as second filter that sorts by feedback scores and of course a third sorting filter that allows you to pick desireability......


        Really narrow it down.



        Seriously, a split based on geography would be nice, but do would the location of seller in heading.

            People still list locations like B-town, bay area, behind home depot, the valley... I vote split to 2-3 regions if not 4.

              I voted keep it the same.
              I you split it then that just makes more sections to search through.

              Best would be to add regions or a zip code distance filter in the advanced search section/filter

                Splitting it up sounds great. As a SoCal resident, for me there would NEVER be a time where I’d be willing to travel more than an hour or so to make a transaction happen anyway.

                  I don't see a reason to split it. Look at the location of an item for sale and decide if that's too far for you.

                    Leave as is. Use search bar. Easy peasy.

                      Split and maybe throw in a Shotgun section while at it ? Yes search can be used but it's painful at some points in the year. Overall it's good and I haven't bought anything because what I always want is in No Cal lol.

                        However IMHO commifornia is so big you would have to split it up into a few different areas or maybe by county.

                          Best would be to add a zip code distance filter

                          Best of both worlds...

                            Leave it as it is.

                            How about people just start posting the location in the title like they're supposed to.

                            It'll take more work but weed out the non compliant ads as they're the ones causing the clutter and trouble. If people can't follow simple directions that are spoon fed in a template, then they don't need to post.

                            No price = no post
                            No location = no post
                            No shipping options = no post

                            If people filled out the ads the way the template instructs then there would be no issue.

                              If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
