Been there for years and seller never answered to any question.

Similarly, there was for years on Leboncoin Manufrance's top-of-the-line Pilat model (ECS design). Once removed all the ugly bits, it's a nice bike . Dead seller again.

Years ? How long do ads stay up there ??
A shame as that’s a peach of a frame .

Sorry, I don't remember. It's only when you brought back the Manufrance Mezenc into my head that I vaguely remembered having this pic of a Pilat in my archives. If memory serves me correctly, there was a change recently on Leboncoin allowing sellers to hold ads with no time limit. But perhaps not for all categories.

From my knowledge, ads on LBC are auto-renewed if the item is not sold.

It's only a while ago that they are at least putting the first published date. There's been stuff there for years that even got transported over to the newer system. There was a fuss that a lot of these old adverts suddenly got tagged with offering shipping which was never the case.

Wouldn't go anywhere near anything without a seller having some feedback rating. They are also mentioning seller "reactive" time now to help buyers. IMHO it is way over due for a system clean-up.

Yes, seller likely sold bike elsewhere, changed number, changed address, emigrated, died etc etc yet ad still there, which is silly to say the least. Good that they’re helping buyers
