I have noticed an increase of items and cars for sale here on the forum. This is not the place for them. I realize the problems with scamers on the classifieds, so just list your phone number or learn to deal with them. If you want to add photos get one of the free accounts like Photo Bucket and make the pictures public then add a link you your ad.

Or use one of these, you can add photos to the ad;

I noticed them to but just skipped over them as I checked for recent postings.
I posted 1 want add on the classifieds and have had nothing but spam and crap emails to that account I used every since.
Apparently the scammers know I sometimes wet my shoes when I wiz as I am constantly getting emails of how to fix that problem.
Yes but one leads to two, two lead to four and it goes on.
I don't think its a big deal. There is a lot of useless rant that takes up far more space. Overall, I think the forum works well and I enjoy it.
Agree with Ted. Threads with hundreds of posts about BS is way more tiresome than an ad or two
The last for sale was by Bill Everett in this post.

I directed him to the right place.
James Bissell is a lot more annoying in the classifieds, than an occasional for sale post here. I have suggested an IP ban on him. I see he is now posting as "Jim", offering cars for sale. Last week, he was buying cars to put in a showroom to honor his supposedly dead mother's wishes. He has repeatedly contacted sellers, offering to make payments on cars while offering cars for sale. People like this make me think twice about using our classifieds.
Ed, there was at least one post defending this Bissell guy. All his classified adds sound like he trying to scam someone. I do not know him personally, but the wording on his adds scare me. He had so many adds before the one about his dead mother that I would have a hard time believing anything he says.
Just my 2 cents
I agree with Ted.
There is worse things to worry about.
I wouldn't mind one a month per, as long as the title begins with: 4sale
"... learn to deal with them."

Be my guest Mr. Gregush. I've got enough other stuff to deal with, consequently I never look at the classifieds.

Ralph make a good point. OT/4sale in subject line.
I agree with Ted.
