[nutcracker]

Not very fair on people who genuinly only sell their own stuff now and again though is it ??

If your box doesn't stay ticked, get it sorted so that it does, is the obvious solution.

[robinpud]

Ok then Nutcracker- how do I get the wretched tick to stay in the box please? I don't don't don't want to see buying and selling at all?

[NomDePlumeIsAShoeWhore]

My box stays ticked....

[DontlookatmeIamborrrring]

Have they all come over from Bounty or do they just sell on all the parenting sites and know each other??

[MrsJohnCusack]

yes I do wish they'd all feck off. and it is REALLY unfair on 'proper' Mumsnetters who do actually just want to sell some stuff (I sold a couple of things a while back)

someone mentioned something about another forum where you could only post to sell things once you'd made a certain number of posts elsewhere as a 'normal' member. Don't know if that would work here?

[Whizzz]

I'm not going to post on this subject anymore as I don't feel I should defend those of us who use MN for chat, spreading good news, asking for advice, supporting wonderful stories like Peter and his heart & having a general good laugh (and sometimes a cry too)
Posters who only use For Sale (& its not just 1 or 2) and have the cheek to call those that ask a few questions, various names & tell us we are sad with nothing better to do are devaluing the board in my opinion.
This is my opinion - yes I have bought and sold things on here in the past, I am not saying I am the perfect MNetter, nor am I the MN police but I resent being told that I am harassing people by speaking out & standing up for what I believe MN is about.
