Why did you change to a bid directory without moving the listings from when it was a regular directory? I submitted listings there before, and now they are gone.
Seems like now a days so many general directories turn into bidding directories One discussion already going on under Solicitations & Announcements section.
I bought the domain and what I could get of the design off the previous owner as the phpld database had borked and he didn't have a backup.
How about running through emails and re-adding the listings. paypal history to refund the listings... its very unprofessional what you have done.
There were only 2 paid links in the original directory as it was a free directory beforehand - I've asked the original owner for their contact details but he's incommunicado. It's very unprofessional what HE'S done, I take no responsibility for what happened to the site in the past!!!
