Not ok to post "for sale"??

[Freshante]

Sorry, was here a year ago, still a noob to forum...is it not ok to post "for sale" info for a PRS S2 I own?

 

[El Fenix]

Sadly not.

Thems the rules.

 

[dmatthews]

Yup, sorry.
No buy/sell here.

 

[Kiwi]

It's simply not done, old chum.

Etiquette, you see.

Nope. a B,S,&T section would probably cause the company to financially collapse. It’s completely moronic, but it is the paranoid way over here!

 

[Prs Mods too]

The benefit is you don't have to worry about the hassle of trying to post pictures.

Here is a link to the forum rules. Pasted below is the bit you are likely asking about:

+++++++++++++++
4. Dealers, Distributors and Forum Member Sales

The PRS Forum is an information and communication site only. Please do not post items for sale or discuss retail or wholesale pricing of any kind. If you'd like to post a classified ad, there are many established websites and forums that support gear sales.

Nope, PRS pays the bills around here and is in the business of selling new guitars. There's a PRS BST on FB and of course the usual suspects..Reverb, ebay, TGP and CL.

Roger, sounds good, thanks.

Greed, more like.

Nah...
This place is just fine without it.

 

[SinSir]

Greed, more like.

The nerve of a business to not let us peddle our used goods in their lobby!

 

[Kiwi]

Greed, more like.

No, it's not.

You're new here. You can learn.

And why would it not be greed for me to expect the popularity of every platform to be available to me to profit off selling something I'd like to sell for money? I don't understand your complaint. Besides, so much has the potential to go wrong and PRS has enough to follow through with without being a home for other people's potential disputes over money from buying and selling. They have to stand by what they make and sell and wouldn't be able to rectify every issue brought about by the sale of used goods. A lot of available places to utilize for that without this being one of them.

 

[Prs Mods too]

Hey, if PRS Inc™ is footing the bill to keep this place going I have no problem not being able to sell here.

Spoken like someone who’s never been in business. There’s no greed in making sure your employees can get a paycheck.

Not to mention the level of liability that comes with hosting a Buy/Sell platform. I could easily see why a company wouldn't want that whole can of worms to deal with.
