Classifieds?

Post by scott88 » Wed Feb 07, 2024 4:49 pm

Hi folks I have looked in the classifieds and that forum looks a little jacked up it’s been a long time since I’ve been in the forums but I have a binary editor dongle that I no longer have a use for and I was wondering if I could post it up for sale somehow- I’m not even sure of anyone buys these anymore?

Sorry this is not in the classifieds but that section doesn’t look active anymore. If this is inappropriate just let me know and apologies! Looks like they go for $215 new I’d let this go for $100 if anyone needs it. I assume these don’t need to be re-licensed or anything?
Thanks guys,
Scott

I never go into the Classifieds, but I wouldn't be surprised if it is just over-run with spam. I tend to ignore what goes in there since it is auto-maintained. Inactivity for more than 30 days, I think, gets the entry deleted. But that probably means most others aren't looking in there anymore either. If it's a useless subforum, I don't mind deleting it and just allowing people to use the Lounge as a place to buy/sell/trade legitimate tuning paraphernalia.

Hey Scott, what model and brand is the binary editor dongle? It might help potential buyers know if it fits their needs.

Good question. I’ll have to track down my invoice to see. I don’t know it off the top of my head.

So I can’t seem to get any invoice details off moates site- it was purchased March 26, 2019. Emails at the time don’t really have much info other than the purchase date and a link to the detailed invoice which doesn’t work. I’ll actually just keep it to be honest. Never know, I may get another car to use it on someday.

Yeah I know the Classifieds section is not really useful. I don't monitor it, I don't even attempt to keep it clear of spam. At one point, I was using it as a "honey pot" to see if the bots that post spam would just use it instead of posting to the other forums. But no, they post wherever they can and I (as well as other admins) delete the junk as soon as we get a chance.

The hope is most people will not notice the spam. However if you are subscribed to get email updates when new posts are created, you probably have noticed you get email updates about a new post, but then come to the forum to find nothing new. That's because spam triggered the email, and an admin deleted the spam before you visited the forum.
