can we still sort by zip code in items for sale?

typing in the zip code in the search box does nothing.

The Google search box, not Audiogon search box. Just open a new tab, paste the zip in the Google search box, hit go and the search results generally show the city without even having to open them. Once you have your city, close the new tab, it only takes a few seconds.

I think what Lloyd is referring to is being able to search for items based on part of a zip code. You could do that in the previous site under "advanced search." It was great for buying local. Now it looks like you have to enter a complete zip code which isn't nearly as useful.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure this is what Lloyd meant.
I searched for and bought/sold this way in the past, especially useful for TTs and speakers, thinks like that that are either expensive or risky to ship. I don't see a way to do it anymore.

Ok, my misunderstanding. I thought he was referring to where, after opening an ad in the old system, we could just click on the zip code and the city would display. The zip code search function was great also, especially when looking for something like large speakers where shipping could be dicey.
