How to edit a classified listing?

[BrightSea]

I have a listing in classified, however, I want to reduce the price.  Seems the pull down menu does not offer an edit option, what am I missing or need to know about the ability or action necessary to edit the price in my listing?  Thank you in advance.

It appears we don't have that capability here. Best to reply to the original thread and state your changes.

It's basically a matter of policy that classifieds are not able to be edited.  This is to avoid issues where hypothetically someone edits the original post to try to influence a dispute.  Similarly classifieds posts can't be deleted.

 

The standard approach is to make changes to the offer with a reply to the post, this preserves a record of the offer and any changes made to prices etc.  Similarly as items are sold a reply can be used to note this.

Thank you Chris, I understand now.
