Everyone does it. They put "Post Shops" at the end of their actual topic message. Then they get so many replies that often a few people will get attracted to go to your shop as well. I agree though that it sometimes gets annoying. But again, without them, the post wouldn't be as active as it is now. ------------------------- You're in for a surprise.

I also love it when you post saying you are buying Grooming items for your shop and people post like their Book shops..

Well it also looks a bit better to see the other ads compared to 2 pages of you doing smiles to bump your post.

What I hate most is people complaining about my markups. If you don't like it DON'T buy! I know my items are marked up. It's how I make money! ________________________________ Are you feeling lucky? Click Here!

Well, for one it's a good thing because your topic gets bumped - seeing that the Shop Ads is a fast board (second to Neopian Pound I guess) And I got to hand it to them, they keep the board on top and it leads more customers to my shop, even if you think they are not coming. lol. You just gonna love the additional counts in the counter - and hopefully additional sales

It's better to have others posting their ads because it bumps your ad for you without you having to put in smilies every thirty seconds.
