    Proper Etiquette for selling stuff

    Hey Guys,

    I may have missed a sticky or something, but didn't want to rock the boat. I have some bikes and gear that I want to sell. Do those types of posts go directly into (or can they be referenced in) the applicable forum, or does everything belong just in the gear swap section of the forum.

    I see a few for sale items in this forum, but being the new guy, I want to make sure I don't get kicked out right off the bat.

    Thanks.

    It belongs in Gear Swap. Some wiseguys try to get around that and post shit here, coasting on their tenure. But it belongs in gear swap.

    Or you could post it in both places. Gear swap is slow this time of year so its less of a problem but bike stuff gets buried fast during the winter if you don't post in sprockets.

    Cool. Thanks guys. Maybe I'll just link it here, but post it in the swap.

    pretty sure that for as long as this subforum has existed, it's been ok to sell bike gear in here. It's ok to post in both places or just in one.

    I never go into Gear Swap anymore. And I'm pretty sure any mag looking for bike shit will be coming through here.
    That said, I ain't buying big ticket items from a low poster. Integrate yourself into to the family. Gain some trust and respect. Piss off a couple crazy fools. Post nekkid pics of your sister. Then give it a go.
    However many are in a shit ton.

    Neil are you the same Neil with similar username on utahmountainbiking.com forums? I dont post much over there any more but if it is then dudes a standup guy. But he still needs to post nekkid pics of sister (or wife, mistress, concubine, etc) in the Praise Ullr thread!

    If I had 3700 hundo that Ibis would be mine!

    Yes sir, that's me. I will post up a naked picture of my buddy Bryce. That should go over well.

    This. As long as I've been here it's been an unspoken exception that bike stuff is posted here. Sure is a lot more effective IMO. I'm even a bit annoyed at having to click another link from here to a gear swap thread. I never go in there anymore either. Occasionally some crusty fucker who's shorts are too tight will bitch about it. Pay them no mind. Let's see what you got.
