Default Users who only post in for sale section?

Are there any forum guidlines for users who post in for sale sections only?

I see you can buy grog here now for 50% of it's RRP...... Top of the line $400 bottles of Champagne, Louis Roederer Cristal to be exact for $200.

And it all seems to sell in just over an hour when you PM the user a question......

I smell bullshit.....or stolen goods.........

i think you're right there rossco
i mean, grog is popular and all, (certainly caught my eye hahaha), but i was amazed to see it all go that quick. and to see that the user has only posted in for sale sections....

this is what ebay is for! i think the quokka section should be removed, as it is only going to get abused. this is a WRX forum where we talk about CARS, not a site like ebay where you can sell shit no worries...

i think the quakka and for sale sections are a good idea, i dont mind jumping on and checking out what people have for sale.
at the same time, i do think its wrong that people only post in those threads.
as jeremy said, thats what ebay is for and cashies!!

You do know Perth WRX isnt the only forum in existance.

Considering its posted on at least one other forum, means its been exposed to probably a couple of thousand people.

People like bargains.
Bargains sell quick.

Your emo you didnt get in on it. You reckon its dodgey stolen stuff but more then happy to pm an interest?

Theres a reason we have a cars for sale, parts for sale, and other for sale.. so people can use the forum to sell stuff.

Not everyone is going to spend their entire lives on here to crank their post cut - doesnt make you any better then them or give you the right to call them out in such a way.

And no, I dont know this person.

^^^ lol

who cares if we are buying stolen goods, who cares if our forum is being used to sell CRAP
hint*sarcasm*hint
like you said teejay, there are plenty of other forums out there, why is this dude selling his shit on a WRX forum. fair enough if we knew the guy, but as ross said, he wont give anyone any info on where it has come from etc.... just reeks of dodgy

Teejay, no offence, but if your car was stolen and someone used this forum to pedal the parts, you'd see it differently.

I simply asked him if he had reciepts for this uber high end Champers. Then all of a sudden everything has 'sold' with in 1 hour........Nope not dodgey....

If there's nothing dogdey he'll post a reply here then won't he!

Dude youve been around for 5 months, I dont know you, so does that make you dodgey by default?

Why does this guy owe you an explanation?

If you dont trust him, dont buy it. No need to rubbish someones name "just cos"
