I use several mopar websites as well as a few other brand X sites.
A good percentage of those sites have an "other stuff for sale" section.
I find that thee is quite the market for random stuff with our car brethren.
is it possible to have a section that is just for things other than e bodies?
I'm not trying o water down the e bodies site, but there isn't a ton of posts per day anyway.
this will help a little bit with a small amount of extra traffic.
Just saying. I'd prefer to offer my random odd things to my bro's here on this site.
pro's ? con's ? Any idea's? Am I being ridiculous?
I think it would be okay for cars and car parts...I wouldn't want to see dining room sets and free kittens posted :dunno:
Auto and Auto hobby related (tools, die casts, memorabilia etc.) mostly I think. A 68 Sport Fury is cool for example, Designer underwear not so cool.
I've got some die cast, memorabilia and perhaps some tools I'd like to part with to help declutter my house. A for sale section for tools and auto related collectibles would be great!
I have a rear seat to an A body (1971) that I would love to find a new home for.

:iagree: Sure, why not and if it doesn't interest you, it's just a click away. While we're all E body gearheads, we surely aren't the same in other ways and one man's junk can be another man's treasure; who are we to decide? :bigthumb:
I'm for it.
Just an example. https://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/forums/other-stuff-for-sale-or-wanted.42/
It's usually a pretty tame area of fabo. As many of you know, fabo guys talk a LOT of crap.
I've purchased all kinds of weird things off of fabo alone (I like weird stuff).

What he said!
There is Craigslist and Angie's List for random stuff. Let's keep this site focused on E-body cars, parts, and services. :alan2cents:
I would not want the recent topics cluttered with a bunch of random stuff. I suggest limiting the content. Mopar cars and parts for sale (with price and location) or wanted might be a good place to start. :thinking: :takemymoney:
After reading the rules and comments from two years ago https://forum.e-bodies.org/parts-misc-for-sale/9/parts-for-sale-rules/736/
It seems the "Parts/Misc for sale" is open to selling anything automotive related ? So I don't see why we need a new section ?
Or are we needing a section for non-automotive related items ? Wouldn't we have a much wider audience with Craigslist of KiJiJi ?
If automotive only, I can't show off things like this that I have for sale.
Not that I would think that someone here would step up and buy a vacation home, but this is one of the things I do all the time. This is what keeps me from working on my cars. So I want to show off sometimes without making a post about showing off.

I'm good with not having a for sale section for things other than automotive, Just thought it would help out our dozen posts a day and up that a little bit here and there.
"Other stuff for sale" non automotive could be a neat add here. Give it its own section so those who don't like it, don't click on it. Put your stuff up for sale here with members you know somewhat if it doesn't go then do the Craigslist of characters.
