I don't want to continue off topic, but I think it is important that I clear up the issue of "Best Offers" in the For sale section. It is prohibited.

Unfortunately, we do not have a "Best Offer" section in the swap meet section. The rules state that you have to put a price on it or it will be deleted. That was there before I started to help Joe and we enforce it. If we don't enforce it, the want ads will become laden with the same questions "how much". We tried many different ways to inform people that the price was needed on the ad, and most of them failed. Joe tried many years before I came aboard and each time I had an idea different than deleting the posts, he would say "tried that and it didn't work" and it wasn't any different when I tried it. The ads shouldn't be replied to on the ad, they should be directed to an email address, PM or a phone contact. We do not enforce this rule, but sometimes I think we should.

I have checked out many sites and most of the classifieds have this same rule. We spend a lot of time cleaning up the swapmeet section and I think it works very well. Lot's of stuff is sold or trade hands each day and virtually without problems. The bolters that use this site do a pretty good job policing themselves.

This question is not that bad and it is a suburban question. If it was left here and locked, people would be able to answer the question through the PM system. It could be removed in, for example in 5 days. I did PM Jimmy with answers to his question, just as I have for others that have posted this type of question. Just my 2 cents. not me

PS: when you purchase something from an ad that states the seller will contribute to the bolt for each purchase, remind them to do just that, our pot would be fuller!
