please suggest one....free or paid, tell me if you have the reason why

phpld - very good script
For it's price, the features are plentiful, mod rewrite, admin features, template system and so on.
And I heard even with thousands of listings, it should be able to handle very well.

You can try the free version first.

3-Way Linking Ability (require reciprocal link to 3rd site)

this is the feature i like most in phpld
have you tried wsn link? i buy it long time ago

I like it, it is powerful for customize.

Wow, now that's a pretty powerful script.
Feels more like a yellow pages kind of thing.
