    Thumbs down WTF is wrong with people on Pelican Parts

    I post a For Sale ad with a link - clearly marked - to photos of all the things I'm selling.

    I then get tons of requests for photos, and people asking me questions that are easily answered by looking at the photos in the link provided.

    Funny thing, though, is that I don't have that problem here.

    So, I ask you, WTF is wrong with the Bird Brains who frequent Pelican Parts Forums?

    Marco,

    It's simple food chain dynamics; just look at some of the WTB ads.

    Although once in a while one of them shows up here. For some reason they like to use the word "damn".

    Every time I read the ad threads there I am reminded of the Mos Eisley cantina.

    Ha!
    And I thought there were some thin skinned folks here! A guy won't buy your seats because he thinks you come across as a jerk? Me thinks he's not, never was, and never will be a buyer.

    So... do you accept Bitcoins?
