IMPORTANT
INFORMATION: On a piece of paper write your ad items and try to keep the
wording of your ad copy as brief as possible. If you need help with your ad
call The Shopper at 301-777-3243 and one of our representatives will be glad
to assist you. We cancel ads after 6 to 8 months due to so many Shoppr ad
items having been sold and not cancelled. However if you notice your ad has
been cancelled and the item(s) have not sold and have an asking price of
less than $5,000 - Call The Shoppers and your ad will be re-inserted at No
Charge, and run for another 6 months or UNTIL THE ITEMS SELL.
