I agree, I think the Classifieds should be moved to the forums. The interface is much easier to read, there's a better format for posting (you can link to images, etc.), q uestions can be asked directly on the forum and replied so all can see, and there's a bigger number of people on the boards here I think than people who cruise the main site.

I just think it's an all-around better idea to move them here.

I agree... Had some stuff to sell or "give" away. Complete rear axle with 3.42's, All rear suspension parts. Wound up letting it go to salvage yard.

I'll say though 1 thing that I don't like is how some1 or a few are using some of our board members screen names and sending out BS E-Mail with them using a program that does that stuff.

Well

I believe there was a reason awhile back why they stop the classified message board. Im not sure what all it was exactly. As it seems there needs to be all this looked over, and dealt with from Dirk or all the moderators to make the final decision on what goes on the classified board. because there has been some debates about it, me personally did not agree with a certain person posting on classified board saying all right enough " more less in quote get your non 3rd gen parts out of here" may not be the exact terminology, But I got into the subject on this board that I posted at, the end it kinda got to me. A lot of people are agreeing that They don't mind the post about the non third gen parts and there may be others that don't like the post, even partial of the post have to do with third gen enthusiast, That's why they registered here right. No more to say here just let the Dirk if he is the one that explains what is going to be and so forth.

I agree. I like the current format better than in a message board form, but we are all spoiled by sites like eBay that give you a ton of options when searching.

For instance, if you are looking for 91-92 GTA taillights, you can't select "parts for sale" and then type in "92 GTA taillights" and get a list of results. You are limited to searching through all of the parts for sale ads, or typing in a single word like "taillights" and searching through every ad in every category, including cars for sale ads, where they mention the word "taillights" in the ad.

More search options (including the option to select the state the buyer/seller is in) would make the classifieds a lot easier.
