but surely the fact that he is a gold member and has paid up his gold member fee's is enough for him to advertise his own cars parts as being up for sale no?

if it's a case of being "the way the rules say it is" then is it not a case of the rules being applied to each individual on a case by case matter?

i'm not having a go, just asking the obvious questions
