Default Anyone Ever Use Autotrader?

My ad is now up there but the pictures aren't displaying. Does it take a little longer for the pics to load than the ad itself? Everything looks okay in the settings.

i think it usually takes about 24 hours for the pictures to show up...i sould my cutlass on autotrader...i got a good deal wit them during christmas of 2003 when they gave a good offer i think i paid like 15 bucks uploaded a bunch of pictures and it ran untill i sold. now i think its like 45 bucks? not sure but o well....didnt really get that many offers...just scams of idiots sending me a cashiers check for 3 times the price of the car and saying that they lived out of the country and that they wanted to pay off the money for the car and for me to send the rest to some unknown "shipping" service in texas.. sounded kinda fishey to me.. it was a real cashiers check and the bank was ready to cash it...then i decided to go to the currency exchange and they where had the money counted and everything...then they decided to call the bank and make sure there was an account...turns out there was no such account but the check was real......thank god they didnt give me the money or i would have been ****ed!!!

I dunno, when I sold my Civic in 03, I remember my pics showing up right away. Maybe give it some time, and if they don't show up in about a day then call them up or something.

More description seems harder to sell. Makes it sound like the cars got lots of problems with the list of the chips and oxidization. Most people look beyond that which is there fault. Sounds mean but thats how life is.
