    Guys.....rules. If you have a problem with a listed price, send the seller a PM, or use the report button. If you report something and it doesn’t disappear, take that as confirmation that the item or post is g2g.

    Do NOT crap in the thread. I’m tossing out very short bans instead of the normal 1-2 weeks just to get the point across. If it continues, they will be the longer bans.

    If someone wants to pay gouged prices, that’s their business.

    I hope this ethic goes the other way too. When someone offers a price I don't think its necessary for people not a party to the sale, or even intending to make their own offer, to crap on the offer. Sometimes its all people can scrape together and they are offering their highest price possible and hoping to get a coveted piece of equip at a price they can afford.

    You shouldn’t be publicly making offers anyway. Send a PM. No reason for anyone but the seller and potential buyer knowing what the offer was.

    But yes, if someone is not part of the sale, they shouldn’t be posting in the thread and are subject to possible moderation.

    Keep in mind, we don’t go looking for trouble. We either happen to come upon rule violations or they are reported. We aren’t being selective with enforcement, we just haven’t seen it.
     
    How do u post in the classified adds. I’m wanting to sell something. Thanks


    you have to have 99 more posts on SH. It’s in the rules. Good luck and don’t rush. You will red flag yourself
     
    Whether you want to call it price gouging or not, face it, this is like any trading market. If demand is up and inventory is low, that’s going to drive up value. I on GB yesterday someone pay $2000 for 16lbs of Varget! Is that crazy? Yep!! But if that person is willing to pay it that’s their business. It’s supply and demand folks. You might not like it is what it is.

    Guys, read this again. Stop posting in threads if you don’t like the prices.
    guys I learned the hard way, don't even post 1 word, take it from experience . YOU WILL BE BANNED for a good couple of days . believe me it stinks.
     
    Its not that hard. You see an item, you either have a specific, legitimate question about the item (ok to post), or your posting Ill Take It. Anything else is on you and dont cry when you get banned. Super Easy
    this hits me right on the forehead , EXACTLLY
     
    I posted a Thumbs down emoji..not even a word. LOL

    1 week vacation from the hide. Learned a lesson...I will now endeavor to not do it again.

    There must be a better way.
    I have been a member since June or July 2020 I think? Been active, active enough to get banned.
    I have 6 post I think? Or 6 PX or Xp's or whatever, say's I have 94 more to reach Level 2.
    I have bought ammo here, guns, here, optics here, and got banned here.
    Is 94 more post going to make me a better seller?
    I been a member of many other Forums for a number of years and the whole post count thing to validate whom you are, and to signify that you have more knowledge, just seems----------like making people post a bunch of crap to make themselves feel more important.

    Has nothing to do with being a “better seller.”

    It’s about contributing to the site. Either with quality posts or financially.

    This is a business. So, it either needs traffic which posting helps, or direct payments. You choose which.

    I can pay to play without doing 100 post?
    Meaning if I want to sell, I pay a fee?
     
    So we are a bunch of fucking liberals that cant handle being told you are price fucking, did i hurt your feelings by all means lock me ban me. If you are fucked up you need to be told you are fucked up. That is whats wrong with society not enough people are called out an punched in the face. I assume after this is sent i will no longer be allowed to play so be it. Case in point 200 dollars for 1000 primers you need to be punched in the fucking face, we are fucking eachother wich is sad. thought guys like us stood together. From what i've seen fuck the guy next to you is whats going on in this world, would have liked to think this shit would not hit snipers hide IT HAS

    I am new to reloading and long range shooting so I've been coming to this place a lot in the last month for advice on certain things. I thought to myself that since the site had been beneficial to me I would maybe join up and donate. So I'm doing a little more exploring and I come across this thread and I am shocked. Now I'm thinking the whole time I've been coming here it's being run by a bunch of pussies. If someone is price gouging it should be called what it is. This is America Jack. And not sure who DThomas is but he seems to be the leader of the pussies. So the pussies can have this shithole I'll move on and take my money elsewhere.

    Thank you for that info ... Good stuff
     
    Doesn't seem like this rule is enforced. I had 2 such posts in the last 24 hours on my for sale post, reported them both and nothing has happened.

    I'm trying to figure out how you skirted the rules and are selling without a supporter account highspeed....
     
    @762recon should chill. Just because it was a high price doesn’t mean someone is taking advantage. Why would you sell something for less than it’s worth?????? If the going rate for primers was $200 per 1k, then that’s what people are willing to pay, and thus it’s current worth. If you don’t like the price, you don’t have to buy.
