I find it real strange how "we" seem to tolerate some people using the forum as a trading post and then, on occasion, "we" get all over others for doing the same thing.JPG40504 wrote:First let me say welcome.
Second let me say: not a good way to enter.
If you had spent some time here prior to revealing craigslist, you would be aware that 'not selling' is something we all agreed to when we 'joined'. Our very generous sponsor does not want trading post activity occurring. That said, the sponsor be quite tolerant so yer link will likely survive.
Also if you had spent some time lurking here you would realize that folks here are quite up to speed regarding what used SS stuff will realistically bring.
Although you are attempting to sell essentially new stuff for half of new cost, it is not likely to bring anywhere near that.
I think you would have better luck selling it piecemeal. JMHO
Looking for advice before purchasing a Shopsmith

I make these distinctions.
"I" will point to some third party(external to this forum) selling something merely as a heads up to members here.
Since Admin seems to tolerate some other stuff I consider that stuff acceptable.
The 'admission' agreement IIRC disallows use for commercial purposes. Notice our favorite guru's wording lately.(it ain't a business).

My getting 'aroused' at times is usually caused by the number one near the upper right hand corner.
I leave the actual 'enforcing' to Admin.
However I think 'Numero Uno's' need to have things pointed out to them.
