Default What is the reason.

Sorry I'm having to post this here but have PM'ed several of the mods and I can't get them to respond to anything.
In the parts section I'm not allowed to post a question at all and PM is the only thing i'm able to do if I'm interested in info on the gentlemans part he is selling or want to buy it.
Do you have to join the sight to be able to ask questions or post down there and if any of you know any of the mods that will answer you back please send me their name or direct them to me on this issue.
Sorry again for the post but when things don't fly you try and fix them.

PM is usually a pretty good way to buy things... I've got a few feedbacks and MOST of my transactions don't include me posting on the sales thread...

When you send someone a PM, when that person logs in, it automatically pops up that you have a new message. Don't let anyone tell you they, "didn't realize they sent you a message" because my 2 year old daughter isn't that ******* stupid. You can also click on their user name to see when they logged in last. Just some helpful hints. Hope you get your cam.

can't post in classifieds at all till you meet the post minimum.
I had to do the PM thing too.

A lot of my purchases were pm only. Busy people wait for the email saying they have a pm.

pop ups and email have to be configured in control panel.
