Do people generally read the Wanted adverts ??

[hedgemumper]

I have found it very useful, and it was the op who came to my rescue along with some great advice. I think it's a great idea having it separate, on another forum I use they have the sales and wanted all in together and it can be frustrating sifting through the wanted ads especially when threads are not titled "wanted".

Its funny when you see "for sale " or "wanted" if the Ad is in the sales or wanted section. .yes we know its " wanted" or "for sale " as that why we are looking in that section .

But it's not so funny when the title is only 'For Sale' or 'Wanted' - that deserves an automatic one week ban

We have a wanted section?!

Well yes in the sales section - but in the 'wants and swaps' section it could be wanted or up for a swap?

yes.My point was the header " for sale " or Wanted" but you have to open the thread to see what they are looking for . Yes it's only a mouse click but putting what you want in the header saves people opening a thread .

why put "For sale " when you could put " Hw100 .22 " in the header? . If I was not looking for a "HW100" I would not open it .

You could put "swap HW100" or "wanted HW100" not just "swap" or "wanted" in the swap or wanted section .

You can hover your mouse over the post and it will show what the thread says on a computer but not a a phone ( not on mine anyway)

Yep, I see what you mean, Paul.

So are you saying you've got a HW100 and want to swap it for something? Or the other way around?

No .I want to buy one but it's in the wrong section.They put it in the knitting section under patterns for sale.

I dont want to buy anything

I do look on a fairly regular basis but have never made a transaction either way. It probably gets viewed more than ‘Intrductions and Welcomes’ though

I do look through as I may have something that can help someone

I've helped a couple of people with small items
