party poooper post #1
please check out my latest 'brilliant' suggestion --
its above in the very top thread --"Boomboxes for sale"
if you guys agree --fine
if not - thats also fine
just a mild thought about these ---
'lets make fun of sellers'
threads
ok
Looks like the 777 got a reasonable offer! Its gone!
So much for the recession...

wheres the party at redben??
-
well matrix - its always a 'stretch' for me -- to make a serious post
but i was seriously trying to suggest that these types of threads are not very kind --
but - if we have to have them -- the party could be best located in our own 'party forum' = Off-Topic

...well then have the mods move it to the "appropriate" off-topic post forum,but I personally think these "seller bashing" threads are kinda hilarious..especially in this volatile economic climate we are in right now.

Thanks for the heads up Mono.
The offer on the 777 expired so, it didn't actually sell.

So, discussing what is a good deal here is ok, but not what is a bad deal?
I don't see anyone personally bashing the sellers in question. I see people stating that they think the prices are out of line. That could happen in any thread here, so why single out the discussion because it starts that way?

Not only that, but both of those boxes are "for sale" and the
Ghettoblasters & Boombox Parts For Sale forum is the appropriate place to post these boxes...
Just because some of us think those boxes are
slightly overpriced doesn't mean that somebody here wouldn't buy one of 'em.
ok --if you check out my reply to PF in the above TOP thread in this forum -- i hope you guys might consider that --there could be a better/kinder way to warn members about bad deals --

Ira, PLEASE..... enough. This thread isn't an example, kindly leave it be.
fine -- carry on
