Don't know what's going on here, but I can't find anywhere to reply to adverts in classifieds. There is no mail link or anywhere to post a follow up. Am I missing something?

I think you click on the sellers name and then message them.

I'm usually the seller though, so not 100% sure!

Clicking on sellers name just takes you to a list of their adverts... no way of communicating

So it does! Must be a recent change as I sold something a week or so ago and the buyer was able to message me.

There used to be a message button after you click on the seller profile but it's been gone for the last couple of weeks. 

The only way to do it, and this only works if their current display name matches their original profile name is to make a note of their user name and replace your username in your account profile with theirs. 

 

So.. if I go to my profile which is https://singletrackworld.com/user/cp/ and replace cp with spxxky then I go to your main profile page and I can message you from there. 

 

Slick huh.

Arg, and singletrack auto butchers link text now. Of course it does.

Wow this website really does make you work for it.

I missed out on some drivetrain bits because I couldn't be bothered to figure out how to contact the seller.

I've reported the OP's message to the moderatros and asked them to pass the message on to the tech team
