idea: limit these threads to pieces more than two years old
Eventually the item would be two years old though...so why not post it now?
I think that as long as it's a "standout" piece, or something relatively interesting, I don't care much if it's from the current season or seasons past personally.
i traded my LUC jeans + Julius belt + Neil Barrett jeans for a blamain biker jeans

it would take several YEARS to get this archive to a usable state.
so to limit what goes in here is not going to help the overall cause.
i personally think everyone who has all the relevant information and images when making a classified thread should post here. it would be a waste not to..
Ok, where is Sir Dicky Snafu? I have determined that it is he who originated this unfortunate nickname...Tell him I know he lives in...London, and, um, will find him. "Dodo," my ass!

perhaps we need a thread called "what not to abbreviate my (overly long) username to"...if I get called geneyoko again I might just have to re-register under another name!!

I agree - the two year limit is arbitrary, and anyway, why not let the work you do to make classifieds serve double duty. In fact, I'm going to move items that meet the standards from my classifieds over to archives for the sake of posterity.
I don't think that the time of purchase of the item makes it less important (read: less authentic, nor the owner less authentic.) I've enjoyed browsing everything, regardless of its <2009 production or not.

Ha! I was thinking of the butchering I did to your name when I wrote the "J'accuse" above.
Why don't you suggest an alternative? I was feeling mentally....limited that day, and out came that unfortunate mess of an idea.
Apologies.

no worries, interest1 also called me that the other day...it's rather strange that two different people would come up with the same nonsensical nickname for me.
but genevieve would be the obvious choice, no? g also works.
