    As we seem to be getting more ads showing up in the forums- Please place all of your ads in our TrainBoard Swap Meet area. Whether buy, sell, trade, wanted, a part, parts, whole item or items.

    New product announcements are to be placed in Model Railroad Product News.

    Thank you. :)

    Ken, I wish that was the case in this forum. It seems nobody wants to get rid of their z. :D

    I just posted an announcement for Ztrack Resale in the Swap Meet areas. Frankly, I have never gone to this thread since so little Z is offered. But it is nice seeing a Z collection being sold to support Trainboard. Z scalers, if you have not seen the list yet, check it out!

    While this might be a good idea for the sale of Z it is tucked in an out of the way corner almost and is not out in front of the community like the z scale forum, unless you think to roam past here you have no idea what it here. To post things forsale I want to see it on the Z forum where it is visible, stuck over here it is not visible and there is not mechanism to attract people here when something is posted. good idea poor implementation in my estimation.

    Garth-

    You might want to contact the site owner. But having the sales all in one area is what he wants done, no selling, etc, in the individual forums.

    What I would do is post it in the swap forum and link it to the z scale forum. I used to link z scales sales to this forum, but enough z scale items show up in the swap forum for me to keep looking everyday.

    Yes. It is very allowable to post a "see my ad, with a link".

    As examples, having ads all in one place helps Staff keep track of removing sold items, and manage any problems such as a seller not monitoring their ads. This is working quite well for all of other scales.

    BUMPING THIS UP AGAIN.

    Please place your sales/wants/trades ads in our Swap Meet area.

    New product announcements are fine. But once you add a price, it is a sales ad...... "See our web site" and "see my ad in Swap Meet" links are good.
