Hi Folks,

I guess this question could be mainly directed at Poeee but the rest of you may have some input.

Most other car forums have a "Cars for Sale" and "Parts for Sale". I think this place could benefit from the same.

Yay or Nay?

JC

I voted "yes" too.
It's not a democracy, but I'm sure our benevolent dictator could sort it.
Can't you Scott?

But it's already four sections:

Minis: for sale
Minis: wanted
Non-minis
Ebay crap.

Simple to work, easy to follow. Why change it? People are still going to put things in the wrong spot no matter how you try and organise it.

There is no common attribute in each for sale heading that would allow someone looking for a car to search for just cars.

There is no common attribute in each for sale heading that would allow someone looking for parts to search for just parts.

Having two sub categories makes it easier to search for what you are looking for.

But it's obvious to me when a car is for sale: usually the title gives it away.
Everything else is presumed parts.

Would you put it in cars for sale, or parts for sale?
