Thinking of my conversation with Stuart abut mains blocks
He was going to get one on Ebay - could be fine, but I think AoS can do better
Could be a new section or could be added to Private sales
Answers from Suppliers by PM with the usual suspects* chipping in to the thread with
"you don't want to do that, do this"
:)
*one of whom could be me !

Are you asking for retailers to contact by PM, posters on AOS ?

Yes, I was trying to figure that out. If that's what's intended, I'm not entirely sure that's the right way to go about this.

Ah, you guessed!
Seriously, it's just a nice picture of the one I used to have. I loved mine, it was the best cartridge I came across for many years.

It's an idea that can be discussed.
My idea :
The question can/would be posted in public. Uncle Tom Cobley and all comment
Prices are PMd to the prospective purchaser
PM means the price is kept between the vendor and the buyer
Is it better for everyone to post all their prices openly ?

it is a good idea but will never happen for political reasons

I'd say so. They'd probably get more business doing that anyway.

Is there a rule to stop a vendor sending a PM with a price anyway ?

Can see the benefits of open and secret.
As long as us punters get good deals !
