Do NOT Attack Other People's Ads!!

Let the Buyer Beware!!

I don't think that any of us as adults need to be "protected" from a bad deal or unreasonable shipping costs, on this forum, on ebay, or anywhere else in this world. Thank you very much, but I'll take care of my own due diligence.

Believe me, if I see your add trying to sell me a Burgness Stratness, I will check prices on the world wide web, and compare shipping costs, and make my decision based upon what I learn. If I find that I can get an ACME Stratness for half the money, it is NOT my job to come on your thread and tell the world about it. jd

The Classifieds Area is NOT a discussion forum to debate pricing.

REPEAT

The Classifieds Area is NOT a discussion forum.

If you are NOT a potential buyer and do NOT have some specific factual question about the product, then DO NOT post in a classified thread.

This is not the place to discuss the price of tea in China or dump on someone's ad because you think the asking price is too high or there is a better alternate product made/sold/invented by someone else.

If we find people "slamming" other members' ad(s), the person making the improper comment will receive a temporary loss of posting privilege.

If you persist in doing this, despite warnings, you will be banned from the site FOREVER.
 
Five warnings sent out today.

And one member banned from the site, permanently.

The Classifieds are NOT a Discussion area.

If you don't like the price, move on.
If you don't like the price, move on.
If you don't like the price, move on.


Got the message?

And consider this, if I have to send out multiple warnings to a member relating to this or other rule violations, and he continues to be an "offender", ignoring those warnings, he WILL be banned from the site. The ban shall be permanent, FOREVER, with NO discussion, NO recourse, NO restoration of privileges ever. Got it?

Whatever your opinions on an ad price... we don't tolerate attacks on ads. Period. Don't Do it!

Thanks for the “refresher”...I almost fell in to this hole myself. Not because I’m a rude person, but because the vast majority of people on here are great people. Then, when I see someone gouging in the name of “capitalism”, well, it’s very hard to keep my thoughts to myself.
So again, thank you for this!
