    Default Put a damn price on it

    I'm sick of this shit, the last few weeks there's been a rampant increase in people abusing the rules of the trading post that say you must put a price on it.
    either using WTT but then saying for cash
    or WTT and not listing any options

    or saying "pm me for price"

    and it's all newbies.

    I stop looking, I'm not interested and I'm not playing that game.

    Put a fucking price on it or if you really only want to trade, put an approximate value on it or what you consider a fair trade.

    Otherwise fuck off and use gunbroker

    Beat me to it. This site it turning out to be more of an auction place than actual 4 sale section.
    I have send numerous pm / em's inquiring about an actual sale price and have received a lot of :Well what do you have for trade?" responses.
    F$%^&k i have a utility trailer, trucks, tools etc, non of them firearm related. Do i need to start including an excel spreadsheet of everything i own to see if something catches their eye?
    IF IT DOES NOT HAVE A PRICE ON IT PUT IT IN THE WTT SECTION OR DON'T POST IT

    Along the same vein. Whats with all the PNW new posters here? Are they banned from posting in OR or WA??

    Yup. If there is no price I move on, fuck em! Don't got time to dick around, especially when I can get the same thing from buds for a good price without them wanting me to list off all the shit I'm willing to trade

    Exactly. I'm not interested in laying out my inventory for review. Put a price. Put a value. List what you want in trade.

    Or go away.

    Default Put a Damn Price on it Follow UP

    HEY SELLERS OR interested parties who respond / receive a pm from me.
    HOW ABOUT RESPONDING IN A REASONABLE TIME FRAME??? If you have an interest as i do on 4 sale items a follow up, or even phone call when i leave a contact number please acknowledge contact. I figure most folks contact between Immediately to 1-2 hours on an item. Or they will contact you asking if the items is available as it is not been SOLD or SPF in the original post
    Granted everyone has something to do besides being glued to the web, i understand.
    If someone contacts you tell us.

    1) Sorry i would prefer money vs. potential trade items

    2) Yes i received your pm / em but not interested in doing business at this time

    3) Yes i am interested but due to (insert here) i can not buy at this time, sorry

    Don't tell me I am very interested, send me pictures ,and not hear from you. Obviously you were not "VERY INTERESTED" and wasted my time.
    When i leave a phone number and ask you to call because i want to buy the item 4 sale. It is because i will not be near a computer all or part of the day and i really want to buy it.
    When i include DO Not Text me as i do not open text, You send me a text message, seriously?

    Responding to a post is great but 4 pages of banter, could it not be better done by pm or em'ing the OP?



    And PLEASE POST THE FOLLOWING IF YOU ARE DOING A FTF
    I want to do a FTF but not mail or ship the item. If someone ask. " Could you ship it to me?"
    If you decide that is not in your scheduling say so. DON'T say NO then 2-3 days later after you have posted BTT every 15-20 minutes WILL SHIP for $$ extra then not contact someone who asked to see if they are still interested.

    LAST ITEM enough with all caps!!

    Default Yup

    When I want to trade I put what I want. When selling a cash price is nice(and the RULES). Are we going to start and auction thread?.
