Old Guy Low Post Count and Confused About For Sale Postings

First I'll introduce myself.

I'm LDHunter (Long Distance Hunter) and have been handloading my own ammo for over 50 years now and I'm starting to consider myself a low grade amateur. LOL

I live in the panhandle of Florida and hunt whitetails on leased land.

Here's my question. I read in several places that you have to have 100 posts to post a for sale ad but I see people all the time with a post count significantly below 100 posts with for sale stuff in the optics section.

Here's an example. This guy has a whopping total of 3 posts and 2 of them are in this ad.

What am I missing? Do some people contribute to the site and then get to post before they have 100? Are they breaking the rules? Do they know a guy that knows a guy?

I always try to strictly abide by the rules anywhere I go but this perplexes me.

Thanks for reading my lengthy post and I will now go back to keeping my big mouth shut and learning from the Hide.
