Default Re: Is it wrong to sell your restorations?

From my experience most forum members are keen to help, whatever the outcome. We don't want to put off people who are keen to learn about a hobby which, let's face it, probably hasn't got too many new followers. I just want to pass on the knowledge that I have. At the end of the day, you can't control what people do with things they own, so if they decide to sell it, break it for parts or otherwise, so be it. I get a lot out of knowing that I have successfully diagnosed a fault. That's been my job for over thirty years. On the subject of deleting posts, although I realise that the moderators have a difficult, time consuming job to do, the result of a deleted post will, I suspect, leave the poster feeling a bit miffed (after all we are all human!). This may result in them staying away from the forum, which ultimately means that they are not providing much needed help for other members. Just my slant on things. Worry about the important things in life instead.
Alan.
