selling stuff?

are we allowed to sell racquets and other tennis equipment on this forumn?

I have looked several times for a "For Sale/Trade" forum, but I don't think there is one.

It would be a nice addition.

I think this could be a fine idea. One thing, though, is that I wouldn't want it to be used some way by people to spam the site. Or, just by those who are only here to sell us stuff and not actually here to participate in the community.

Think I should set some kind of limit so that only TW members who have been here over a period of time or who have a certain number of messages posted can post in that forum?

I am not sure what would best protect the integrity of the site, possibly only individual sellers, and/or only equipment purchased for personal use.

However, I have 2 racquets I purchased new, with plastic still on the grip, I may very well sell in the next couple months, but they would fit above, except I purchased them new, and haven't used them [purchased 3, using one and still considering other options].

It would be nice to have a place to list items owned by individuals to sell, though, if it can be done without creating a headache for admin.

Maybe you could create a craigslist style of buying and selling. People could mention what they would like to buy or sell and the post would only last 30 days. They have to be members at least 90 days and have at least 10 posts. Sounds good to me.

I am concerned when you have people like nikejordanaaa who are attempting to spam your boards already.

I am here to communicate about tennis, but I wouldn't mind seeing a buy/sell thread. I am offering a cool tennis image on shirts and gifts, via my site. It's been popular amoung tennis fans. My site is not just for tennis though. As long as people don't abuse the thread with SPAM it would be nice to see new stuff. I have my site in my signature, but I can take it off if it is requested. :)
