Question for Moderator's
Is it just me, but I seem to see more bullet/primer/cases for sale on the classified, for pretty high prices and being listed by very new members, I appears.
Is it just that the new members have the items, that are in short supply and are selling or are they using the site for a business profit ? Last edited by Bill K; 03-29-2021 at 02:14 PM. Reason: Attention given by Moderator/s. Thanks. |

Nailed it, Bill. Same thing on another forum I frequent.
Not a mod - sry if out of line.

Maybe there should be a period of time and/or number of posts in order for a member to sell anything. Just a thought.

I think the “minimum number of posts” before using free classifieds is an excellent idea.

And remember, those folks selling at a "higher price" are your shooting buddies???

Several times in the recent past I have QUIETLY notified charlie when I've seen it happen. He has always removed them within a few minutes.
Just because someone is a moderator here doesn't mean that they sit with their eyes transfixed on their computer screens waiting for something bad to happen here. They actually have real lives beyond just this. If you don't buy from him, they guy won't benefit in any way. End of concern....... charlie has once again been contacted, but some of you need to be aware that its almost 11 PM where he lives. I doubt that the ad will just go away on its own until a moderator acts..... maybe tomorrow if not sooner. -BCB

I saw no need to rush to contact a Mod.. So that is why I just posted, as I did, and knew in time they/someone would see it and handle it, if they saw a need.

I have axed a few ads recently pointing to commercial sellers. There's not much I can do with new/private sellers. Like BCB said, don't buy from them if it's too high or you don't need. If you are in real need, pay the piper. Supply and demand...
