I want to thank all that have participated in the new classifieds. So far, this has been a huge success. I had no idea that in the short time it has been open that over 100 bows would have been sold.
I know of one that was sent to the big auction due to being a riser only, and a lefty, and another that someone decided to keep.
I can understand both due to the number of participants being lower, but over all there has been a lot of stuff marked SOLD.
If I had to guess, there's been twice the number of contributors that normally contribute anyway.
Also, there have been ZERO issues as the 'gentleman's agreement' has been adhered to....which has relieve the admins of that forum of much work that we are really pressed for time to handle.
Some time soon, we will offer up a 'cut off' date on the 'Specialty Forum' where folks will have a really good chance to get their money back....and it should be a hoot to see how that plays out.
I'll announce the date in plenty of time for those that want to get in on the classifieds for 2014 a chance to do so before we take a pause in registrations for the classifies so anyone wanting in on the chance to re-coup can do so.
Again, many...no...MANY thanks for taking the burden of the old classifieds away from us.....as it is a much appreciated relief. You have no idea at the work that we have not been having to deal with.
I just can't stress enough how thankful we are at the 'new' time we have to devote not only to running the site, but the time allowed in our own lives to 'take a break'.
:campfire:
That's some pretty good news.
:thumbsup: No.....thank you!!
Thank YOU Terry, Rob And the rest! :thumbsup:

Dang, Terry,
If I'd have known you were going to use the extra time to "RUIN" the site... I might not have re-upped! :saywhat:
What a difference a one small-letter typo makes when you read things carefully!! Ha-Ha!
Enjoy the break, you guys earned it. :clapper:

God bless,Mudd
My thanks as well, what an incredible resource this site is. Thanks for all the hard work so that so many folks have the classifieds and everything else that is so valuable.

I guess change isn't so tough after all ... good job Tarz & crew :thumbsup:
Shoot Terry, I've already gotten my money back. I made a good deal on a bow & a quiver so far in an environment where I felt secure dealing with folks that I was.
Thank you for creating that environment! :thumbsup:

Nah Ken....once you shrug off the dozen fowl...and I do mean FOUL mouthed emails we got over it....its really no big deal in the grand scheme of things.
Glad to hear it is working well for you guys. You run a fantastic site here.
That is definately good news to hear about NO issues reported. And more time to you and the mods must be an awesome thing.
Thanks for the 'upgrade' to the system Terry and mods.

I guess the idea of a "gentlemen's agreement" seemed outrageous to those 12 "gentlemen." (Of course, maybe it was just one guy who wasn't a gentleman but had 12 aliases and 12 bogus deals ready to spring on us!)
:thumbsup:
Woohoo!
The new classifieds seem to be working quite well, I'm glad it is less time consuming for the admin's and mods.
glad everything is going good. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Glad its working out! I can hardly wait for mine to get entered in.
:thumbsup:
Thanks to the gang at Tradgang!
Really great news.
Hey Terry, maybe I missed it in a different thread, but is there a cut-off date to be a 2014 contributor?
Thanks!
No...no cut off date.
Mods! Just a Huge Thanks. Ken
However...if you want in on the 'specialty forum'...where you have a real chance of getting your money back, there will be a cut off date. We will announce that date so everyone can get in that wants to. We will suspend Contributions during that time so those that dove in and help us make this a success will get the chance they deserve by taking a chance on the change.
It's gonna be a blast. :biglaugh:

Might even do this before Christmas....for extra cash for the holidays.....
What about it 2014ers?
Whatever it is Terry, I'm sure we'll appreciate it.
Time has shown the "new" classifieds to have been the right decision.
Well done!
:thumbsup:

It sure has, you have no idea at the relief we have been given. Time given back to us for more important things in life.
Everyone is caught up except one person I'm waiting on a reply via email, and what ever came in at the post office over the weekend.
Going to go for money back venue soon I think...maybe for some folks to make some extra cash for Christmas. I'll ask the guys and see what they want to do...the 2014ers.
Sorry, I didn't know what had happened, yesterday I posted a question about it in the wow, and it got axed, I guess I should've paid more attention. My bad.
I was pleased with my use of the new classifieds and wrote a post about it. Got a nice bow from a good guy.
Glad it's a success and providing you guys with some extra time.
Must have been a pain the old way, knowing that you had to continually be on the lookout.
This is a great site.
I'm always learning and always making friends.
