Thread: removal of the classifieds restrictions

Well said a vibrant trade hub takes nothing away from the discourse here but may in fact bring more razor fans here. See how it goes.

Even though I have never used them,I guess time will tell. I always thought of SRP classifieds as zero tolerance to snake oil salesman ship and a chance should be given at least to the new way.So let the chips fall as they may. Cheers and good hunting to all.

The quality of one's work and product offerings should be able to be supported by their feedback reviews, one would think. Will this also apply to the members services honing page? The ADs get deleted after a period of time. Thank you SRP for offering this to members.

From the day I signed in here I said the classified rules were ridiculous, glad you changed up to MAN rules, Thanks.

Metrosexuals are Useless.

It won't be too hard to see who's in it solely or mostly for the selling - and at that point you can decide for yourself whether you patronise them or not. I think the dodgy ones will be fairly obvious, and more than likely will not be stupid enough to even try to pass off crap on our site. But there are many stupid people in the world, so ...

What have metrosexuals got to do with the Classifieds ?

I dont understand why so much philosophy has to be associated with this move. Many members have no such thoughts hunting razors on EBay. Its not like the forum would suddenly be spammed with deals on razors and soap. The forum will still be a place to discuss our hobby and the classifieds a place to buy and sell stuff. Dont like it? Dont click on the link labeled classifieds.

I think this new change is a great idea. It will bring more traffic and encourage our members to use the classifieds more often. Instead of them being a ghost town lol.

I approve of the changes. I've a few razors I want to sell, but I couldn't list under the old rules unless I wanted to "pad" my post count with inane comments.

Thanks for the change.

Time will tell.

What I will say is this, looking at other shaving forums BST they have a lot more going on and i've seen members from SRP sell their shaving stuff on there but not on here
