DO NOT thread jack someone else's thread to post your stuff for sale. Start your own thread.

So silly just to possibly save a few dollars.
i guess ill share my recent story. Ive been a memeber for about 3-4 months now and i decided to buy a set of brand new KWv3s for a decent price. Yesterday after a long day at the shop we realized that these werent the right fit for the g37 and that they were for a G35. We noticed a label with the right part number over the original part number for the g35 verified by KW. i had to reorder the coils str8 from kw since my car is still at the shop ended up spending more money. I filed a claim with paypal hopefully everything gets resolved. Great write up by the way i agree 100% with the rules.

Sorry for your troubles. Did you buy these coilovers from a forum member or a forum vendor? Feel free to PM me details if you'd rather not discuss it here.

I'm bumping this thread again. Why? Because it seems to be necessary. Because some people are unaware, don't comprehend, or simply ignore these rules. That's a problem.

In particular, there's been too many threads posted without the required photos. That's not acceptable. If I start issuing time outs to people posting FS threads without pictures as well as deleting them, maybe that would encourage more complete compliance? Or revoking Private Classified forum privileges for those who make extra work for me unnecessarily by having the gall to post stuff for sale without prices or pictures.

Fair warning.

Have we considered adding a WTB section? To keep the "For Sale" section a little less cluttered? I noticed they had this on the 370z forum?

I see it's time to bump this thread once again for the benefit of new members and some older ones. 3 day bans for first offense thread dumping is quite possible. It's a big pet peeve of mine. If you don't want to buy an item and have nothing to add to a persons FS thread, stay out of it or suffer the consequence. Don't post to complain about their price or post where you can buy it cheaper. If you're actually trying to help the seller, PM them. Don't dump on their thread. Or a ban will be dumped on you.

I don't spend a ton of my time going through every single classified every day. Sometimes I'll notice shenanigans on my own, but typically I address it after someone reports it. Sometimes the OP, sometimes others who don't appreciate BS in classified threads. If someone craps on your thread, report the post by clicking the button. I'll take it from there.
