I personally very seldom answer an ad for car parts, cars, household items, etc. unless a price or best offer is listed. But each to their own. But an auction section sounds like it might be a good idea. May help with the cost of running this forum.
Have fun with your AMC!!!

I agree with the idea of an auction section.  I'd be glad to pay a small fee to list a part for auction.  Has to be better than the crooks at e-bay!!   When you add up all the fees those guys are making a killing!   Oh yea....I have ebay stock...better shut up!!

Bring on the auction department. As an ebay seller, I agree this would be a great way to circumvent their outrageous fees!

A auction section would not be a bad idea. I still think you should have to post a price for your for sale items and if you don't like that you should sell elsewhere. The moderator(s) could delete price bashing or personal attack  posts. I realize I am the new guy, I am just throwing this out there you know the whole first impression thing? Thanks for listening.

Post an ad and we could also lock it. Then any and all communication is handled privately.

An auction section would be very beneficial and there are free auction template modules out there that would not cost us. It would only take up the webmasters time =)

I won't use "free" templates because we are SQL based and I won't open this forum up to possible attacks. Free always costs somewhere down the line. IF anything is added or modified, it will be fully supported, fully backed, updated and security checked. One reason I am running what we run is that it's VERY immune to SQL injection attacks and other methods of hacking and attack. Even the mods I put in are checked through others to verify I'm not opening up any code to possible attack.
Time is money - and since I do the "webmaster thing", I must balance my time (at a premium lately!) with the forum needs...........  and again, the goals I insist on (as well as all the others involved insist on!) are stability, security, resistance to attack, resistance to any data loss, daily backup of the database and all files - including photos folks have here, etc. full support in case of any issues (can call or write someone and have a timely response and not take days to figure it out)
The goal is that even in the event of my death, the forum lives on, no data is lost. And in event of my death, one of the other mods, be it kirkwood, heaven forbid - pmm, mm, purplegremlin (Tom), whoever, can pick up the phone and get help in case something happens.
I guess I get a bit anal that way.......... go figure. Wink
I get enough folks PO'd at me when I'm alive, no use anyone cussing me after I'm gone for the hack job I've done! LOL
