Default Re: Dealers on this forum

I cannot afford my hobby without regularly selling (or trading if possible) items that are not wanted any more or are part of a larger lot I bought to get the items I really wanted. I know that I am not the only person on the forum who is "financially challenged" and selling on the forum - to fellow enthusiasts - is much less bother than ebay.

It is very difficult to know who is a trader or just skint but the important distinction is that if I sell something on the forum I am selling at the price I am happy with. If a dealer buys an item from me and then sells it for a profit then that is their good luck. I got the price I wanted and they are welcome to do whatever they want with it.

The only way to stop this happening is to ban all "sales or Wanted" posts which would be a shame. I hope that this is not the way this will be sttled.

Just my 2p worth.
