1969 Chevelle SS 396 L78 car, Frame OFF 4 speed!

Not directed at GSXRAY specifically but to all non paying members overall. Why is it that we continue to have discussions surrounding the for sale adds (that are free to members as well as non members I might add......) and there continues to be abuse of the use of this site? I agree that many cars are picked apart on this site but on the other hand, this site also brings a huge quantity of qualified buyers to these people and their adds. If people don't like the way things run in the for sale section, then go somewhere else and sell your product, it is that simple. Some of you have a real issue with parting with the $20-25 membership fee that helps this club stay afloat and lets you post your adds for free but then complain when someone makes a statement.

I for one am getting REALLY tired of having people log on, sell their crap and move on never to be seen again or even so much as a "thank you" to the club or it's administrators for allowing them to use the site. Ironically, many members do post a "thank you" even though that is what their dues are helping pay for. Go figure. I pay my dues every year as well as make donations and go to many of the member's events to support them and their causes and it gets a little old when some of you non-members never bring anything to the party. Put up or shut up as they say. I think it is high time this club does something about this and make it mandatory to be a member to post an add or simply don't come here. Some are worried that many of the valuable parts will not be available if they stop posting them here. If they are not available here, they will still be available other places and can still be bought. I do not know why we continue to waste valuable space debating it.

I have placed two adds on other sites this past year, 1 for a 66 Ford F250 and one for some Impala parts. In both cases I joined the clubs I was posting the adds in out of pure respect and appreciation for the use of their sites. If $20 is going to break you then go to e-pay and pay more. Admins, please do something about this once and for all so we can go back to being a productive site.

Rick, while i agree in part to your statement i also think it benefits members here when there are good things to buy whether from a paid member or not. I do think if someone sells a few things or a major priced part or car thats different they should then join ,but i also think if people have fairly priced items to sell and have to sign up first to sell them,it hurts the buyers more than it helps the sellers. Id rather see the parts here,than go over to the other free listing sites to find them. Again, iof someone sells a major item or sells multiple pieces over time then they can contribute. I will also say if i buy a part/car at a nice price ill pay for that sellers membership if they dont themselves.

hey king...

what's a nice price?

i'll pay for your membership forever to get a nice price on that L-89 lemans blue 69 camaro of yours LOL

Alan, Nice price is defined by being lower priced than any other similar item for sale. Im under the others plus i feel having paperwork,high options,and the lowest original miles[9000] i should be priced higher. That being said,Im always open to discussion with good customers.

[deuce-less]

that's what really scares me....

having a price discussion with you...

i'm afraid it would be like playing basketball against you

what i really need are some lower priced comparables to work you with
