Not sure where this should go.
Feel free to move if need be.

I have a pet peeve--

I wish people would post that a pm was sent when an item is up for sale in the classifieds.
This makes I don't know how many times I was the first to post I will take it and a PM sent, only to find out some other member has already bought it.
PLEASE POST THAT A PM WAS SENT so others won't be shocked to find out that they were not first!!!

Sorry boys but to me that is only common curtsy.

I agree LONGTOM, I try to do both, send a PM and post to the WTS/WTT as weel with the info that I have already sent a PM. I agree it helps to keep things going "smoother" and results in less hard feelings and broken hearts....<><....:)

That's the suggestion in the Free Posting Hints sticky, but like the classified rules, too many members don't read them.  :-\
