Andrew Smart (ID: 00000047e4f30560) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 04/03/2020 Initially googled how to adblock featured listings and got nowhere. Shot in the dark to search the chrome extensions store, and i can confirm all 'featured listings' annoyingly getting in the way of a low-high sorted search with ridiculous overpriced family cars are gone! Thank you for this
