Hailed as the most revolutionary radar/laser detector ever. The Passport 8500 X50's new "V-Tuned" radar receiver provides extreme detection range on all police radar; conventional and "instant-on" radar, including the new POP mode radar threat, X-Band, and up to 50% more range than the original Passport 8500 on the all-important K and Ka bands. Digital signal processing (DSP) provides maximum range, with minimum false alarms.

Last time I looked (in this post) you are a vendor selling a new retail product. That's not the same as member to member selling take offs and unneeded parts. It would be different (and I would have no objection) if you were selling a used one pulled from your own car. I'm just wondering why you felt the need to post in the peer-to-peer "classifieds" when you have a forum all your own.

Scott - when we were using the separate Classified Section, there was a section called Supporting Vendor Advertisements & Specials (http://www.mercurymarauder.net/classifieds/showcat.php?cat=19). Since the Membership expressed interest in abandoning that format and using a Forum format that would show up in New and Today's Posts, the Classifieds were simplified into five categories. I don't recall any discussions about exclusive peer-to-peer use. There are Members selling new items too. I don't see a problem here. The idea of the Forum format was to keep it simple and fresh.

Is it okay for me to post for sale items in the Reinhart forum? They would certainly show up in New and Today's Posts from there as well. To quote a person wiser than me... "just because I can doesn't mean I should".

Okay. I will stop. :argue:

Oh, did I comment on this thread? Maybe you just wished I had, so here you go.

Last I checked, no one has to be a vendor to post in here. That's the purpose of it, isn't it? So members can list items and cars they are selling without becoming a vendor?
Maybe you are insinuating Vendors here are a little higher importance than non-vendors.

Way back when, the original push for supporting vendors was to give them their own forum and platform to sell their wares, keeping it out of 'regular' forums, and of course also provide some financial support for the privilege.

Member classifieds was originally set up as a convenience for member to member, non vendor, sale of items.

When the Forum 'Parts for Sale' is sponsored by Brute or RC, then you have the right to voice your .02 cents.

Until then, quit stirring the pot, Steve will be on your AZZ

Sorry, I didn't realise the parts for sale section was sponsored by you, or Steve.

I guess paying to be a vendor, and just a regular supporting member makes your opinion a little more important.
Did you even read my post, or did you just react?

Leave me the hell out of this. Zack only mentioned ME because my user title is Official Pot Stirrer. No other reason what-so-ever.

You seem to get a bug in your ass quite often, for unfounded reasons....

Come on, guys. You're proving the notion that the Classifieds should not be a forum for banter. Don't be surprised if there's some housecleaning in this thread (moved to Site Suggestions). The question's been asked, and answered.

Not everyone looks under the DR forum, he was advertising the fact that hes doing free shipping on these, why get your panties in a bunch over that? sounds like hes lookin out for everyone, nothing wrong with that. afterall if you wanted to buy one and you didnt look under his forum and missed the free shipping chance wouldnt you say "well that sucks" but this way EVERYONE knows about it...beside the group buys and sales he has provided for us members should have bought him a little bit of slack no?

RC and BruteForce you said that noone has to be a vendor to post in here and that is the purpose of this forum, so because hes a vendor hes NOT allowed to post in here? Besides was it really worth wasting your time argueing and showing your ass about somethin that has ZERO effect on your life or did you spending 10seconds of your life reading his post just completely ruin your day and have a large impact on your life? besides the forum is titled "Parts for Sale" this Passport is a part and it is for sale correct? Whats wrong with making sure everyone on the board knows hes doing free shipping on these? Im presuming you guys are grown men not middle school children, no need to go "OH MY GOD hes posting something thats better than used, its NEW!!! and i dont like where he posted it." None of this has to do with him being a vendor just because hes a vendor doesnt mean he can no longer post in here, it just means the money he pays allows him to have his own forum also. Just cause he has a right to his own forum doesnt mean he lost his ability to post in the other forums. If your that unhappy about it then lead with actions not words, become a vendor and never post in the classifieds only post in "your" forum

Yes actually i read the whole thread including the nifty little tidbits about what the passport does, did you read your post and realize how you reacted over Dennis trying to help us members out? Even if I was showing my ass(which i don't believe i was, maybe we should make a poll to find out for sure?) you showed yours first and for unfound reasons. Did you read my post at all? Did you bother to stop and ask your self how your argument has any meaning in your day or if it was just trivial drama and stress that you could just eliminate from your life? It seems you two are the only ones on this entire board with a problem. Everyone else seems to appreciate Dennis' generosity. Life's to short to let stuff like this ruin a day, seriously what did you gain from this? How has any of this benefitted you in any way?

Zack i appreciate the support, and your post says it all. I guess my pressumptions were wrong. And to think I'm only 19 years young, maybe people really could learn from the younger generations?

We don't need a poll. Dennis has every right to post anywhere he sees fit.

BTW, thanks Dennis for the offer on the Escort. I have two and certainly would consider another if I needed one. It's a terrific unit, and a great price.
