Some way of letting people who search through (Engine/Drivetrain Parts for Sale) know if a parts was sold would be good. Would save a lot of time when your looking for a specific part. The seller closing the thread or maybe a different colour on the headline....

 

That is on the list of features we'd want with an updated Classifieds system. The current system does not allow this.

In addition, it's not going to be 100% a technical only issue, because not everyone returns to their ad to state if it's sold or not - which they can do now and notify a moderator that to close the thread.

It's just like not everyone returns to their technical troubleshooting thread to update what the problem was that caused them to request help - which would help people searching on a similar issue.
