WHAT A JOKE. so much scam, spam, and flim flam.. and people flagging left and right for no reason.. the amount of BS replies and flagging make it such a hassle... anyone else had a bad experience?? No automobiles, but have posted and sold a bike and wheelset there. Maybe 2 obvious spam/scam responses, but they are so easy to spot that they were no distraction at all. Besides, I'm not in a hurry to sell, so wasn't concerned if I had made a mistake in identifying the scammers. Didn't interfere with selling what I had advertised. I still have a set of bike wheels posted there and since getting the initial 2 scammers, except for legitimate responders, no more scam attempts. bob |
