A lot do not indicate location unless they put it in general description along with phone numbers etc.

I find the markets section extremely frustrating I think it needs a shake up

There's no point in just saying that and not giving some reasons, e.g., what don't you like about them.

sorry to cause frustrations and thanks for replys, what i meen is if you look at an item on some of them you have no idea where it is (eg. have a look at the roof top tent currently in markets) because some people don't put their location in their user name area (eg. mine as you can see is Ararat) and other people put a silly description for location. yes you can put it in the description and you can put a phone number etc but some don't and i just thought it would be easier to make it a mandatory field for posting and item for sale with a location of the item so we know before enquiring if it is 4000km's away and not worth following it up.
thanks again,

Yep. On the RRNET forum, I've told the Mods if there is no location in the title, then it's deleted.
