other than that, i have no clue what goes on here.

For fuck sake. So, you don't need to be a trader to trawl the wanted forum etc and canvas people with parts/services, but as an ex-trader you're not allowed to sell personal possessions?

Sounds perfectly logical.

At least I know what I can do now.

Are you not allowed to answer peoples wanted threads if you have something they want? Do you have to remain quiet?

Not wanting to side with anyone, but as someone totally impartial in this little debate, I thought this was one of the exact reasons why traders were reluctant to re-new. Because non paying people were replying to wanted ads and PM'ing them offereing them parts, and potentially losing a paying trader a sale?

no mate the reason a lot of traders left was because of the part time bedrrom traders who paid nothing and got away with advertising items
replying to wanted adverts unfortunatly cannot be policed as all people do is PM people,
the wanted section id open to all even non gold members,so anyone can reply,so untill the rules are made different thats how it is
now if anyone has a problem with that or has a suitable idea to change the rules contact admin by all means

1. Can start new topics with items for sale in the For Sale forums (non-trader.)

That would be a yes then, you can sell parts in the for sale section, just how much is such a grey area...........

But you have paid to be a Gold Member allowing you to sell stuff, which it clearly says here.

now if you cast your mind back you were asked to pay the trade fee or stop advertising as you run well well over your quoter,I tried to help you with this even pointing you in the right direction to set up a business account which was needed to become a trader on here,you obviously did neither,you run your own garage thats common knowlage you also deal in salvage again common knowlage so like myself you are not allowed to advertise,please feel free to advertise your personal car when you decide to sell or reply to wanted adverts that isnt a problem and never has been
I hope I have been off help to you yet again
