BUY/SWAP/SELL UNDER EACH CLASS FORUM
Hi Folks,
I hang out on Benzworld as well (now stop throwing stones you know damn well so do a lot of you reading this) and it bemuses me that MBWorld doesn't have available a class specific BUY/SWAP/SELL section for the members in each forum.
It would take the form of a new STICKY at the beginning of each CLASS Forum where people can advertise their odd bits and pieces, requests for bits etc to people who have a similar vehicle !
Really I don't have any interest in say a 2003 CLK door skin , I am interested in what fits my W124 Class 300CE Coupe Window Switch !
With parts interchangeability possible between some class vehicles and with parts becoming harder to source for older cars, I would rather browse through all the W124 offerings than those non-relevant vehicles.
I have had an initial positive response to my suggestion from the FORUM ADMIN but we need some figures to boost our chances of getting this put in place !
So let's have a poll
Who is for a model buy/swap/sell section i.e W124 ?
Who isn't ?

10000% I am very surprised that this had not been done already, broken out by model. I have also a M3 and the BMW boards have a huge used market, broken out by each model. I am always hunting for used aftermarket parts....exhausts, intakes, headers, etc.
She should be done right now!

Good little crusade you've got going here.
Most of us don't bother filtering through the generic classifieds but would buy and sell more if we saw an easy location with model specific items offered.

Yes, please make this happen, I definitely like dealing with like minded individuals over random vendors. Great idea!

When you say set, do you mean 1/2/3/4? If 4 and CLK lightweights, I may have to have speaks with you Neanderthal
Edit:
It would be useful I think, however, I doubt the administration here would ever add it.

Sounds good to me - I was just looking for fender - but it's a little deep there with everything else.

togaclk55 has just replied to a thread you have subscribed to entitled - BUY/SWAP/SELL Poll Running - in the CLK-Class (W209) forum of MBWorld.org Forums.
Here is the message that has just been posted:

Great idea. Looks like everyone else thinks so too looking at the poll results.

Good Effort I agree. I think we should have individual ones by car, but then also have a page that lists them all off at the same time. A lot of the things are universal, like emblems and wheels.. etc
I think there should be a page dedicated to Trading and Swapping parts and accessories! I am trying to trade my 20's for a different set of 20's and there is nowhere to post.
