    If you're selling something in the Cars for Sale forums, you must put an asking price on it. We aren't a fishing forum here, so post an asking price.

    I will give everyone a couple of weeks to change their current posts to reflect this new rule, and then I will start deleting posts that don't have prices. I won't ask your permission, so please take care of business if you have corrections to make. Thanks.

    You should make it necessary to post location too, it would reduce the confusion on some posts.

    This would be nice on parts for sale area as well- have seperate area for 'make me an offer on this' threads.

    Thanks, Jesse. And thanks for the feedback guys. I do like the idea of requiring a location be posted too, so please try and do that, guys. There's really no reason not to post a locale. I don't like putting bunches of rules on these forums, just enough to get the job done, but I will if it gets to be problematic. Happy selling.

    How are these people supposed to change it when the "edit" button is gone after 24hrs or less ??? I think leaving the "edit" button there should also be the new rule..

    If you want to post a car for trade, also include a cash price you'd be willing to accept in lieu of a trade. If you have no intention of selling outright, state that in your ad and then specify what you're looking to trade for, along with some range of prices you want to be in so people have some idea of whether or not they can work with you.

    I have no control over whether the edit button exists or not. You'll need to take that up with the administrator.

    I believe it was originally taken away because people were changing their posts in a deceptive manner.

    I still would like to know how you expect these members to make your requested changes with a "EDIT" button that ISN'T THERE! You'll give them a couple weeks to change or you will delete there post's? Thats not good buisness when the members CAN'T change them!!!!! So maybe you should give the existing members a chance before just deleting there adds and PM the members that don't have prices and change the posts for them seeing they can't!

    I'm with ya on the price thing. I do agree, But I would have worded more like this: New rule: From now on there has to be a price listed on all new "Cars F/S threads" If not! they will be deleted.


    PS: The post just before this was only ONE HOUR ago and I already can't "edit" that post! Thats rediculous.....

    It would be very easy to post a reply and add the needed info.
