I have a hard time understanding the need to post it in the thread. Why not just PM the "I'll take it"?
Sorry, but your "I'll take it" means nothing to me if I am interested in the item. It is up to the OP to decide who will take it, so that's where I will direct my communication. I'm not going to miss out on something just because you may or may not have a deal.Because you’re publicly notifying other interested parties, and the seller, of your intent to purchase. Not a big deal for something that lingers for days and haggling occurs, but for in-demand items I think most appreciate knowing something is “called forlz
A reply to a thread usually generates the same type of notification email as a PM, right?
Its the mods’ sandbox and their rules and one complies or leaves. I sort of understand banning people commenting on the item for sale or ask price, but banning public commitment to purchase is a deviation from PX/marketplace “best practices” of every other internet forum I’m on, firearms-related or otherwise.
I suppose I’m not seeing the problem this rule change is supposed to solve, or how it is additive to the INGO experience. I concede my opinion is mine alone and again, I’m here of my own volition and must follow rules accordingly.
We’re still cooking breakfast. Give it time.I was expecting the responses to be:
Like it: 40%
Hate it: 40%
Thread-jacks and starts talking about food: 20%
I was wrong. Nearly half were funny and/or F-15 related. No food discussion was a big shock.
WTS - One bowl of cereal…Peanut butter crunch, just add milk.We’re still cooking breakfast. Give it time.
Yes, this is a sensible rule. Now if we can get the newbs to read the rules in order to follow them.Good to see this happening
Just to add to other folks' comments.Why not allow “I’ll take it”?
I have a hard time understanding the objection to that.
The "I'll take it post" is just someone hiking their leg and trying to mark territory, but the person posting I'll take it, doesn't own the hydrant they are attempting to **** on. It means nothing, until the seller accepts and marks the item SPF.Why not allow “I’ll take it”?
I have a hard time understanding the objection to that.
Just stop bumping the ad. OK.Why not allow “I’ll take it”?
I have a hard time understanding the objection to that.
Are those the fly by sight only models?I have sold two lesser models
Well that seals it. No point in posting anything else in this thread.I'll take it.
I just had to get that out of my system.
I would say that just because someone post I'll take it, doesn't mean that the seller is willing to sell it to that individual.Because you’re publicly notifying other interested parties, and the seller, of your intent to purchase.
