Question to the Moderators and members of our Altec Family!

**amandarae** · August 18th, 2011, 08:31 PM

Hello All,

First off, I am a proud member of this group. I am not a middle-man of anything just want to see if my request will be permitted here in our forum. Here it goes...

I have a friend who wants to sell Altec drivers. He is not a member here and he does not participate in any audio forums. In fact, he does not even know that I'm trying to help him out and will tell him about it once I got the go signal to post pics of the drivers here.

Once I get the permission, I will post the pics and his email info. For those of you who will be interested on the stuff he have, you can email him directly and do your business with him. I will be out of the loop after I post the infos. I just want to help him out by getting some "exposure" of the things he wants to sell. Nothing else.

Is it okay to post this type of stuff here in our forum?

Best regards,

Abe

Todd has final say...but at this point with the classifieds not working....not much else you could do.

I would post with the caveat not yours as you did here.

It's a two way street, yes it helps your friend to get money, but it also helps somebody to get drivers.

I think it best not to bother Todd with small issues, if you get several ayes, I would go ahead.

Will step off my soap box now.

Next?

The one thing I would make sure is the asking price is reasonable. I won't aid people who ask way more than the going rate.

I'd say OK, post what you've got. Or what he' got. The fellows here will let you know if the price are inline.
Thanls very much for asking first!

The posting's have been pretty slow around here lately plus I always like to see home pictures of altec goodies. Also I don't really like having to go over to a classified section to see whats for sale....can't we just make a marketplace thread and sticky it?

I second dat emotion. Sellers can delete ads when sold.

Though for referencing other people's stuff I feel that should be it's own thread, just as we do for eBay and CL.

Thank You!

I do not know the prices nor I do not want to know. As I said, I will only provide pics here and contact info, nothing else. having said that, here are some pics:

NOT a problem - THANKS for helping him!

I'm still trying to figure out what's wrong with the classified's...we'll try to get them fixed shortly, or we could try the "marketplace" idea...

What say ye?

I wouldn't mind seeing a "Marketplace" sticky. When the item is sold, the seller could note it his post.

**magnarc** · August 20th, 2011, 03:55 AM

A market place sticky is a good idea, so long as some basic rules are followed, ie the title/post heading is changed to SOLD when the item sells. Also suggest a format such as username <at> isp <dot> com (<dot> au/uk/etc) for email addresses, to avoid them being trolled and used for spam.
I would go further and say no 'make me an offer' lines. A price should be stated, even if it is 'ono' be used.
Ideally a photo or links to same.
