SECOND 30 DAYS
£8.99
THIRD 30 DAYS
£7.99
FOURTH 30 DAYS
£6.99
The renewal price then remains at £6.99 while the same vehicle continues to be advertised.
Aged-stock renewal pricing applies to Marketplace renewals only.
EXAMPLE — 50 VEHICLES
First 30 days£9.99£499.50
Second 30 days£8.99£449.50
Third 30 days£7.99£399.50
Fourth 30 days£6.99£349.50
