Hey all,
Been thinking since there’s been a lot of complaints about the selling forum and the upgrade to the classified system, it may be good to start a single thread where suggestions or ideas can be made instead of the multiple places. That said, the admin and mods are listening to us and seeing what they can do to help out. For example they’ve already increased maximum ad allowances and number of photos allowed in initial post.
Here’s my first suggestions:
This is just a thought. I don’t know how the community would feel about this due to the “I pm’d him/her first before so and so bought it…”
Feel free to post other ideas/suggestions. Please note, the mods/admin want more than just “go back to the old way”

Here’s my first suggestions:
- Include location in the discussion portion (perhaps combined in the shipping/pick up only area).
- OR Make a thread state tag mandatory. This would be kind of like the old system where people could select their state and it’d show at the beginning of the thread title.
- Enable a buy it know type option. Without going the auction route, maybe have a way for a person to buy it now by allowing the seller to include their PayPal and a inventory quantity and allowing a buyer to click buy it now and the quantity (if more than one) to send money right away. The buyer and seller can then discuss shipping dates etc.
This is just a thought. I don’t know how the community would feel about this due to the “I pm’d him/her first before so and so bought it…”
