why is there no buy/sell/trade forum at iboats?

[500dollar744ti]

honest to goodness question here. i've been on many automotive forums, large and small, they all have wanted, for sale, and trade sub-forums.

i would think many iboats members have parts/spares that could be very useful to other members who are having a hard time finding parts especially with boats where things are much less common than cars.

is there a liability issue at hand? are some of the members here ill equipped to handle sales transactions like mature adults? too many complaints or safety hazards?

i don't want an argument starting here, just honestly want to know if i missed something, maybe there's a hidden sales section? where do most people go to buy/sell/trade good used boating parts? any other forum with a good section to browse?

please no arguing, i don't want a locked thread, just curious.

Re: why is there no buy/sell/trade forum at iboats?

iboats is a marine products retailer. It doesn't seem business wise to offer competition a place to compete.

When it comes to boats, however, we have many boats for sale.

Because discussion of management decisions is not allowed in the forum (see rule#9) this thread is closed.
