I was sad to see it go. I window shop there occasionally. I wasn't willing to post my thoughts on it when it was going to be shut down. Didn't want to try to influence the decision. I can see the wisdom in closing it down. One less complication running the forum. Also, I know Parabellum protects the members here. I've seen him do it and know how important that is to him. Now that it can remain with updated policy, I'm relieved. I hope we can see the effort put into making this the best forum on the web...and I do believe it is.

Glad the Classifieds are going stay. I have used them quite a bit over the years both buying and selling. Lots of guns and gun stuff bought and sold but have also sold things from shoes to a car in the classifieds. Only hiccup I have had is sold a gun and the fella used a dick of an FFL who made the transaction a complete pain in the ball sack and the transaction took weeks when it should have taken days. As for the thought process on no more WTB ads I find that kind of strange as I have always had really good luck. Though I do see how it can be an easier target for the scammers. Thanks for deciding to keep them open! ———————————————— The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad. If we got each other, and that's all we have. I will be your brother, and I'll hold your hand.

This is the best site out there. I don't post often, but I read here almost every night. Great people here. I've never bought or sold here, but I have thought about a few items, just not quick enough. Thanks Para for keeping the option open for us. | |||

I sold a used something or other, might have been a holster, to a member here. I sent it to him and said, "Check it out. If you like it, send me a check. If you don't like it, just send it back to me." הרחפת שלי מלאה בצלופחים | |||

I have been following this from page 1, and the way it's evolved, I have to say this might deserve a sticky. I'll add my thanks to Para. Another example of his excellent stewardship. | |||

I may have missed it and I refuse to google it but did we figure out what a hellsake is? | |||

FWIW the first Sig I bought was on this site and a very smooth transaction. I'm glad the classifieds are staying whatever the new rules turn out to be. | |||

Make it so people that post in the classifieds have to pay a small annual fee, you then have their C.C. info...... I'm on The Hull Truth (boating forum) and that's how it is there. | |||

I like WTB ads. I've responded to many of them and hooked up fellow members w/ things they Wanted To Buy. Black just posted a WTB ad looking for a Kershaw Rainbow Leek, a pocket knife that's long been out of production. I have one. Another member responded too, so that's at least two of us who have the knife Black is looking for. If you're looking for obscure SIG parts such as OEM zipperback mags, an OEM set of von Stavenhagen sights, a MGW 307 sight pusher, or a P225 like the one in the SF banner, SF is one of the best if not the best place to find those. How do you find that stuff w/o a WTB ad? Sure there's fleabay, but many of us prefer to avoid it if we can. Same goes for GunBroker. Whenever I email someone in the Classifieds, I also post, "Email sent," in his thread. My email and my post will be within a few minutes of each other. The other member can click my profile to verify the email address listed in there matches the one he received in his inbox. If roman had bothered to verify Flash's email address, he wouldn't have been scammed. If he hadn't posted his email address, he likely would have avoided being scammed. Sorry roman, but live & learn. I'm not arguing against a temporary WTB moratorium, but I do want to say that members helping other members find stuff is consistent w/ the spirit of SF. | |||
