Are you looking for tickets to a sold out gig? A specific camera lens you can’t afford at retail price?
If you feel like you’re always missing out on the good deals, it’s time to use the email alert feature on our site.
What is an email alert?
It is an email sent to you as soon as an ad matching your criteria is posted on Adverts.ie.
For example, you can set up an email alert to be notified as soon as an advert is posted in our Free Stuff section. That’s handy!
You can set up alerts for specific items such as Nikon Camera lenses or iPhone 4 covers, etc. You can even select a region and a price bracket.
How do I set up my email alerts?
All you need to do is create a search for the specific item you are looking for.
In the example below, I searched for Nikon lenses under €250.
Click on ” create email alert for this search” (green button on the top right-hand corner) and you will receive an email everytime a new item is posted in that specific category.
Remember: the more specific the better! You could end up receiving too many emails if your email alert is too general.
How do I remove my email alerts?
You can manage your email alerts via your profile.
You can choose to deactivate them (to reactivate them at a later date) or delete them.
Hope this will help you find the best deals on Adverts!
Happy trading 
Claire
Buttons buttons everywhere…. We are adding more buttons to make the “offer accepted” comment stand out more.
On each ad, the seller will now see an “accept offer” button on each comment made on their ad (see screenshot below). Once the seller clicks on it, a window will pop up inviting the seller to add a comment. The comment will show as : @Eddie: Offer accepted. (The seller can enter their own comment but the ‘@Eddie: Offer Accepted’ bit will be put in by the system)
If the offer falls through, the seller will be able to cancel the offer (by clicking the “cancel” button on the original offer) This will not remove the original comment but will automatically add a new comment saying that the ‘item is still available’.
The seller can then accept any other offers that were on the item as before or wait for a new one!
We hope that this makes it easier for both buyers and sellers to trade on Adverts.ie and should tidy up the offer/acceptance process.
As always feedback welcome!
Thanks
Claire
