Annoying isn't it?if your really bored then read all the hassle I've been having with all this although at last eagle is trying to get it sorted.It feels on here lately that if your associated in ANY way to the motortrade then therefore you must be selling parts for personal gain,therefore you must pay trade rates.it's only a suggestion but maybe there should be some middleground in all this trade stuff?Perhaps an option to pay a slightly higher membership fee or even a payg basis if your only occassionally using pf to advertise bits you may have aquired for various reasons.Obviously if you run a ford related business full time then you should pay trade rates or if your a trader selling five cars a week on here then again,you should pay but I think there could be a good gap here for pf to make a bit of cash from part time motortrade people,after all,it's a community here,why not help each other out?I get offered cars on a regular basis,I bet far cheaper than most people are paying for them,
which I would be happy to put on here for say £5 per advert,but at £50 a month I'd have to sell ten a month to make it worth my while,I bet pf would make shed loads more this way!again,it's only a suggestion but I think it may make sense,it would be easier to police as well as you'd have to pay the fee by say paypal before you advert would be processed.just a thought!!
