We can turn the classifieds off till all this political and buying frenzy is over.
Or, you can look at an ad with a gun for sale and you can see that it is 3X what you consider fair and then hit your "back" button and go on with your life.
It really doesn't matter either way.
Your choice.

I would much rather see an approach where those not following the rules suffered the consequences instead of all. It matters to me as I enjoy this section

If you don't like the price don't buy whatever it is.
Common Sense. WOW, we should use it more often.

For what its worth I for one would like to see the classifieds remain open.
Perhaps a mod can start a thread in the classifieds so people wanting to sound off about NOT getting that deal can complain. Call it "I hate capitalism" .

How about instead of shutting down the classified, the moderators warn the offenders and then ban them if that doesn't work?

Can't blame the Mod's.. They reluctantly put this section back up with clear rules on how the thread is to be managed. People cannot seem to understand that this is not a General Forum or a Value Request Forum - Its a paid Classified Forum.

I vote shut it down, until things calm down.
If I see one more ad that says "in todays market" I am going to puke!
If you have to apologize for your price in the ad description shame on you! If "todays market" means double or even tripling your money take that crap to Craig's list, GOC or Gunbroker.
If this is a board is suppose to be a "family" so to speak. I would hate to see how this "family" treats people they don't like!

I wouldn't warn them just ban them or temporarily disable their accounts....The mods have warned time and time again and even have a topic locked at the top warning against such....how many more warnings do ya need? Hammer your comment is alot of the problem on here if you dont like a price leave the page and move onto to the next one quit bellyaching about it!!!

Hitting the back button is a lot easier. and if you see someones price you dont like be an adult... I personally like shopping here. in the years I have been here I have only had one bad deal and one where me and the buyer could never get up with each other. I am adult enough to Know if I like or dislike the price that is being offered and do not need a mod or admin shutting down the page. Here is a simple suggestion. If you( meaning anyone that bothers to read this) want a mod to step in and police the ads or remove the page, why dont you go turn your guns in to OBAMA, because you, must not be able to control yourself, and your decisions or you just want the administration taking care of it for you. either that or simply dont come to the classifieds or just use the back button. JMO
JA1234 - I like the way you think!

It's not about liking or not liking a price, I could really acre less. I learned my leason in 2008.
It's aboout intergrity of TNDEER or lack there of, there are plenty of other places on the net maximize profits.
Doing it here just makes TNDeer look bad.IMO To many people are acting like they are helping you out by selling you something at a jacked up price. That is not help.
Call a spade a spade, I just think that we are better than that and a shut down might give people a chance to rethink "the market"
Here is an idea why don't we try to help each other rather than try to sxxxx each other in the name of FEAR.

Capitalism is a social system based on the principle of individual rights. Politically, it is the system of laissez-faire (freedom). Legally it is a system of objective laws (rule of law as opposed to rule of man). Economically, when such freedom is applied to the sphere of production its’ result is the free-market.

I agree with the majority here on this one - punish those who keep insisting on throwing comments that are unnecessary.
This is the way I look at it - as a potential buyer, if I find an item that I am interested in buying from an individual, then it is MY OWN RESPONSIBILITY AS THE BUYER to do my own research to see if I am willing to pay the price listed. If I feel the an item is overpriced, then I don't buy it - it's that simple...

For those that hate seeing high prices listed, do you react this way EVERYTIME you come upon a price that you don't like ? If milk goes up to $7 a gallon do you source the dairy farmer and kick him in the nads ? Or blatantly cuss the guy behind the counter at the gas n go when gas goes up a quarter overnight ? If you do then maybe you should seek therapy. I either pay it or search for a better deal. And as far as the integrity of the forum, I dont judge based on the classifieds section.

Shutting down a "free market" is on the same line as banning guns.
This forum already a sticky at the top with the following rule:
"If you have issue with a price listed in an ad, take it to PM with the OP (Original Poster). DO NOT I repeat DO NOT complain about the price in the ad..... I will start deleting accounts shortly if this problem persists. Thank You."
If people would follow this everything would be civil.

Greed is the root to all evil. I believe in a free market but it is getting a little crazy. What ever happen to "Do the Right Thing"
But I agree just dont buy and move on to something else. I enjoy the classifieds and have got some great deals from some great people.
