The classified postings should be left for no more than 30 days. After 30 days, the listings get stale, and for the buyer you end up making lots of calls of items already sold, and the seller is getting calls for something thats been sold weeks earlier. After 30 days, if the seller still hasn't sold their listing, they can always repost their listing. Besides if items aren't sold after 30 days, they stay hidden on page 22 and nobody sees it.
