Photos will be automatically deleted if:
A photo is uploaded and not used in a listing for three weeks
OR

Why was my listing removed?
Listings may be removed if they breach machineryseller policy.
Continued breaches of machineryseller policy may result in suspension of a seller's profile.
Listings are also automatically removed after 12 months or at the end of the first 12 months if not renewed by the lister.
An email advising the reason for the removal will be issued.
