A reminder - No wanted or for sale posts in the forums

[JimC]

We do not allow wanted or for sale type posts in the forums. We ask that members don't make these kinds of posts in the confirmation e-mail that all members receive when joining. If you read the e-mail you received (and clicked on a link to complete your registration when joining), you'll see this:

Please do not post For Sale or Want to Buy topics here, this is not a marketplace like eBay.

Steve doesn't have a lot of hard and fast rules. He wants the forums to be a friendly community of members sharing photos, ideas and other information about photography. But, Steve does not want the forums turning into a big flea market for buying and selling gear.

That's why wanted and for sale posts are specifically mentioned in the confirmation e-mail members receive, so that we don't get those types of posts here.

It's far too hard to police, since we'd have scammers posting, commercial entities posing as individuals, hard feelings between members when deals go sour and more. So, we don't allow for sale posts, period.

That includes posting links to elsewhere that you have gear for sale (i.e., trying to "bend" the rules to sell your gear or other products and services). Don't do it.

Thanks.
