ericsb210 Posted May 24, 2015 Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 Question: For parting out one of my rigs, I made a general posting for all of the parts. Surprised at the lack of response. If you are looking for a particular part which of the following are you most likely to respond to or buy from; 1. A general listing covering multiple parts, lots of reading required. Pic is of a random part. 2. An ad specific to the part that you need with the matching pic of that part. 3. A wanted posting for the part posted yourself and wait for responses. 4. I don't waste my time on Ratsun classifieds and go directly to Craigs List. 5. Fill in your own description. Thank you, for letting me waste your time. Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted May 24, 2015 Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 The new classifieds are superior. End of story. List each part individually over a course for about 3 hours, most of which won't even be viewed after they scroll off of the Ratsun.net home page, then get no serious response about any of your listings that DO somehow happen to be seen. :thumbup: Thank you for wasting your time. -The Management 2 Quote Link to comment

hobbes_the_cat Posted May 24, 2015 Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 I use the Ratsun classifieds for listing rare or especially desirable parts with success, but for a full part out or run of the mill stuff, I'd list it on Craigslist. You know we all surf craigslist looking for parts anyway. Also I only list stuff here that I'm willing to ship. If not willing to ship, go straight to craigslist. Quote Link to comment
thisismatt Posted May 24, 2015 Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 Looked at your ad. It looks good to me. Might just be the 720 market. 1 Quote Link to comment

VFR800 Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 I like the classifieds that are the norm in the year 2067. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 Ad looks ok. If your are agreeable and coming to Canby, you could add that you can deliver some parts there for pick up? Quote Link to comment
ericsb210 Posted May 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 I was planning on going to Canby, but my daughter set her wedding date for the same time. I thought about n she won out ;-] Oh well, I will set my sights for next year. Hopefully, my Datto project will be completed by then. Quote Link to comment
