Do you want this site to be quality, with the majority of deals being good deals, or do you just want it to become like most gun shows selling the same old **** for 15% over MSRP?

While paying to be a member, no less.

It’s a simple question.

Enough. Take the pricing rants to the pasture where they belong.
 
What I want is likely immaterial.

It will become what it will become.

And there is no proof, whatsoever that it will become something worse, or better.

Just guesses, no data.

If/When it becomes something I don't like, then I will see no VALUE in staying here, and will not come here.

Until such a time, if any, not up to anyone to tell me what VALUE I place on the Site.

Nor my place to advise others on the ODT's WORTH.

You do your thing, I'll do mine.
 
Not sure if this has been mentioned yet , to lazy to look , but Craigslist is now charging to list cars for sale , and thinking about charging for some other ads . But , $20 a year to support this site ? That’s petty change !!! It’s not cheap to do this site ! What you gonna do if Okuma can’t keep it up and running ? Sooner or later your gonna get bored with abusing your little friend ! :becky:

That explains were most of the newbies came from....
 
Not entirely true, we got here because they closed their classifieds completely. And when they came back they wanted $1 an ad, not a $1 a month. And we're bigger now than they were at that time.

Correct...since advertisers were less than forthcoming then, sadly, GON's stink will linger. However, nubies, lurking even here, will naturally shy away. It's happening right now and that will continue. Always has, always will...imo... :rolleyes2:. Advertsing; compensateor's..[read capitalism], realize this is a cost of doing business. It may risk their bottom line for a time, but they are supposedly businessmen so they should know profits will grow simply due to the increasing populararity and sheer volume of this site.
Every deal has been a good experience.
I love

this place! :tea:..​
 
Anybody else keep changing their votes back and forth because of the compelling arguments so far?
Nope, but that's par for the course concerning lots of members on here nowadays when it comes to selling/trading. A better offer comes along after settling on a deal, and they stick it to the original agreement. Changing one's vote to make them feel better isn't at all a surprise to me........

I've never, ever done this. You could offer me three times what I originally agreed to accept from the first taker and you are just going to be too late. Anyone who does otherwise quite frankly is a LOSER and I would never deal with them again. Just one man's opinion.
