    Hello,

    In my opinion, these categories mean the following:

    1) Unclassified
    Cards that you couldn't classify. For instance: you sell cards from Belgium and you have a card of a Belgian village you can't find in the different categories from Belgium. You can put that card in the 'unclassified' category.

    2) Other
    Cards that don't fit into another category. For instance: you sell cards from Belgium and there is one card with a map of Belgium on it. You can't put this card in the category of a certain place, because it is about Belgium as a whole. You can put that card in the 'other' category.

    Best regards,

    Quasar

    As Quasar has pointed out.

    "Other" is for those items that don't fit in any other category, i.e. Widecombe on the Moor should go in UK>England>Devon>other.

    However, if you don't want to spent your time searching for the best category; if you have a postcard of Bruges, but you are not sure which province Bruges is in, you should list it in Belgium>unclassified.

    In other words, you have 50 postcards of a country you are not familiar with, you can list them all in "unclassified", but potentially you reduce the visibility of your items.

    As far as I am aware Lincoln is the only UK one. Possibly because I asked for a Lincoln category seperate from all the other changes (a couple of years ago now) and forgot to ask for "other" as well.

    However, since then, I've asked twice to have "other" added and so far this has not happened.

    And you are right - there are several European countries that seem to have a different pattern of subcategories to everywhere else.
