    Thumbs Up For sale

    Many members of EAAFORUMS have spare parts, unused tools, equipment, and other aviation items just sitting on a shelf forgotten and collecting dust. Being able to easily offer such items for sale right here seems a good idea. It wouldn't take much to get started, just the simple addition of a CLASSIFIED AD category. Using it, a member would be able to conveniently post unwanted items for sale. Other members may use the category to announce a "looking to buy" offer. A classified ads section is found on other forum type websites, why not here?

    Because they hadn't thought of it. It would be pretty easy to add it.

    Because folks are saving all their shelf-fillings to bring to Aeromart & sell there?

    A great idea if you ask me. A top-level category of "Market Place" which could later be broken down into popular sup-cats.

    I like it.

    Great idea.
    Another useful idea sharing parts sources. Like where can I get a set of struts for a Luscombe 8a. Members could put you on to several leads,...
