Classified Ads Script - Any Recommendations?

[TOWebstress]

I would like to implement a classified ads script on my Web site. Naturally, it should be php-based, using a mySQL database.

 

There are a number of scripts out there, ranging from free to a few hundred dollars. This is a volunteer position for a non-profit group, so the cost really has to be less than $100 (which seems doable from what I've seen).

 

My requirements are pretty much in line with what's out there -- users should be able to submit their own ads and upload their own pictures (without requiring anonymous ftp access) as well as go back and edit/mark sold their items. Expired items should delete themselves. It's strictly a buy/sell site -- no personals ads, car sales or other niche market.

 

I'm no php/database wizard, so installation should be fairly straightforward or I'll be in trouble.

 

Have you used something you like? Or particularly dislike? Please tell me about it. Thanks!!

Never used one but a good place to find one is here.

Thanks for the lead, Bruce. I've gone through the rounds at Hotscripts (and a couple other similar script repositories) a few times, so I have a general idea of what's available out there. I was more wondering if anyone had any personal recommendations. I appreciate your input though!
