Thread: removal of the classifieds restrictions

I'll admit I don't look at the classifieds often, But don't you dare impugn me for having an opinion, and a factual concern.
And people wonder why I don't post much anymore.....

Buyers ARE protected here. That is a simple fact, and it is because reputation is everything here, and it is not the hyper-inflated meaningless feedback system of eBay. If a buyer here has a problem they can contact the seller and the majority are going to bend over backwards to make it right. On the rare occasion that a seller does not correct whatever the problem is, the mods will step in and sort it out.

No, the mods don't have to give money back and they won't do that, but if a complaint is registered the mods WILL look into it and WILL block the seller if they have been found to have done anything wrong.

I'll take this protection (SRP) any day over Ebay.

Glad to see you are back on track. Sounds like a good use of the classifieds

Yep Ed, let that be a lesson to ya. Kidding around with you..

I've sold a lot in the classifieds and on ebay, I'm way more worried about shave ready here on the forum and make double sure they pass my tests. This is a community and ebay is a flea market

It might stop guys who want to use the calssicieds who have been members a while but with too low a post count just posting innanities.

So here's a listing with no pictures and text practically cut & pasted from the bay from a user who only joined two hours ago and who has zero posts. How is this possible?

Razor Strop Hart Steel 5/8 Straight Razor, Polished Finish, Square Point and American Mountain 3" Strop w/ White Linen Backstrop - Straight Razor Place Classifieds
