I sold the wifes Disco today to another forum member without "Me" advertising it anywhere else.

Dave, why not have a $10 charge on listing the vehicles on here that can go towards the upkeep of the website?

I'm gonna donate $10 for the service but it would be good if other members followed suit once their vehicle sells.

Nice one Dawg,,:cool:

It would be nice to think that anyone that gets a great deal, or is substantially helped by the sites resources (members or vendors) would kick the tin,,;)

Good idea.

I like the idea of a freebies section with a donation to the forum from the receiver.

Cheers

I think it is a good idea but I think a donation rather then be charged for the service. So it comes down to the user deciding on if to donate or not.

I would of thought most of us would be happy to give without any quarms anyway.

Sounds very fair...

We could even expand if a little further.. on sale of the vehicle a small donation doesn't sound unreasonable to me - say $25 or $50..

After all as a percentage of any vehicle sale that's bugger all..

Maybe even just through a voluntary honor system - I think most people here recognize what a fantastic job Inc does running the site.

Just need to wrangle the extra $$ out of the buyer :p
