Can we have a "pay it forward" stcky for the CUCV's?
It is where free stuff is offered, if you take something, you put something up of use to a cucv owner. You can list before you take something as well.

Also a "I will trade my ____ for_____" sticky would be nice, though not as likely to happen.

that might be a great addition for the classifieds -

kind of a 'free stuff' forum

or a 'swap meet' forum

that type of thing?

but you can't post ad's in the classified unless you are a member so that may be problematic

I have thought about a free classifieds section, but I'm worried about it would be abused.

As far as this thread...
Trades, no.

Free, yes.

With volume of classifieds being post in the forums now you could use a moderataor just for classified ads , if you ads a free section it would need to be done before starting the free section , as you don't have time to keep up with forum posts now.

I would say maybe a FREE listing ONLY would NOT require the $15 premium member, NO trades, ect., NOTHING but FREE, If it is found that something is free BUT shipping is $100, like some EPAY sales, then the FREE ad GOES

So…. If I was a vendor, and I wanted to give stuff away, would I be allowed to post in the “free” classified section or would it have to be in the “Vendor” section?

Yeah, good idea, I think we all have bits and pieces we would give away if someone paid shipping, but managing it and defining the rules would be a whole new workload.

Good Enough

Golly gee whammo.
I think if we all just spent the same time/effort making the site work as it is now instead of spending that time/effort trying to change it we would all be better off.aua

And yes...I am a grouchy ole phart!

Saw something like that last night. It was a 150 dollar value thing they droped to 10 bucks, then free, but had a 39.95 S&H fee. It would easlly fit in a flatrate box. Sad part is they had a counter on the screen and sold thousands of em.

I have no problem with people giving stuff away. I have no problem with people charging shipping. I do have a issue with inflated handling fees. That's the sticky point with this.
