not a bad idea tho....wonder if sellers would take the time to cruise a WTB section, rather than just posting a FS thread....

I agree 1000% - WTB should be seperate from FS - very confusing and it clogs up the section. As an occasional seller, I'm SURE that anyone selling ANY thing will be more than happy to cruise through the WTB section to see if there might not even be a point to post his/her FS item.

^^^exactly! if i had something to sell i personally would go to a WTB section and look for someone that was looking for my item so i could sell to them as well as list a for sale thread, this thread is meant towards the WTB people posting they WTB something
WTB clogs up the for sale section, you have to cruise through many pages to check the LATEST for sale threads. I say latest because i will use search for older posts.

I've nothing against a WTB section since I have posted a few WTB myself but I think it goes in cycles, sometimes more people are wanting to buy than sell...it's a good indicator of supply and demand. Right now we are in a buy cycle.

This is like starting a whole 'nother discussion LOL
Anyway, I've posted a bunch of WTB's too and too don't feel that having it a seperate section would have been any worse - no one answers those things anyway

Well there are a lot of people looking for M-tech rear bumpers right now, so for those yeah - probably sellers market. If there were few "WTB" postings we would not be having this discussion!
I've got plenty of responses from WTBs, I don't care where we put them as long as people read them.
