I've posted an advert in the SwapShop section but it appears that posts cannot be edited once submitted....Why?

You get to edit your posts in the Swap Forum, as well as access to the Members Only Forums, by becoming a Subscribing-Premium Member. The donation-fee is as low as $15 and goes to help run the site and pay for the yearly Father's Day Gear Give-Away.

It also helps maintain an accurate description of the goods being presented for sale. People can and have posted something and then edited the original post after the item was sold leaving no record of what they originally stated the quality was.

Post a reply to your own post or start a new thread and let the other one die. If it was me, I wouldn't post the price in the title anyway because I want people to have to click on the ad to read it :tongue:.

As mentioned, there have been incidents of someone editing their posts after an item sold, changing the description of the item in an attempt to cover up something that the buyer was disgruntled about. That's why editing is disabled except for premium members.
 
Based on your reasoning Moleculo, (which is very sound) no one should be able to edit a for sale item. Premium member or not.

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
