I was hopeful that VS Auctions would really take off but it's been up for 10 months now and I really only see a handful of things on there ever. Even VS has reopened their buy/sell sections of their message board.
I was thinking, isn't it about time to unlock and reopen the buy/sell/trade sections of this forum as well? To be honest, I really miss them and thought they were a great part of this forum when they were operational.
Others may have opinions regarding this as well.
Regards,
MIJ
Matt, how about reopening the buy/sell/trade sections?

Yes, you're right. It's been a while, and the auctions didn't really get off the ground. I've opened the sections up again to new threads and posts.MadeInJapan wrote:I was hopeful that VS Auctions would really take off but it's been up for 10 months now and I really only see a handful of things on there ever.

Sorry for the failed experiment guys!

Hey great news! And....it had nothing to do with our buddy Jim, but I'm sure he'll be happy about this too.

P.S. I have to add the word Volvo or else I can't post. Evidently without this line my message looks like spam.

I'll leave them because they provide good context for what sold for what $ (or at least what was listed) at a given time and place.
Users should -- as with any forum thread -- check posts' dates.

Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.
Also -> Amazon link. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!
