Swords Posted October 21 Author Report Posted October 21 I was using auction Not sure why it’s in the wrong place Quote
Brian Posted October 21 Report Posted October 21 Are you advertising your auction on eBay? Are you discussing an item that is on auction somewhere or for sale elsewhere by an online seller? No? Then STICK to the For Sale section here. We have an entire section devoted to sales here. Use it. I moved this. Again. Quote
Swords Posted October 21 Author Report Posted October 21 You’re right I’m removing any listing on EBay Quote
Swords Posted October 21 Author Report Posted October 21 I’m going to try the auction site one more time if it prompts me elsewhere I give up 1 Quote
lonely panet Posted October 22 Report Posted October 22 I can tell you directly. Spitting your dummy here or in the nihonto community will get you off side of everyone faster than farting on your wife hand in bed. Relax, take a step back. Iv had lovers tiffs with brain in the past but we got past it. Hes a decent guy with a lot on his plate 2 1 Quote
Brian Posted October 22 Report Posted October 22 You don't seem to understand. Don't post it in the auction section. That section marked "Auctions and Online Sales or Sellers"? Do NOT use that unless you are discussing a seller or someone else's online sale. It is not for listing your items. Use the section marked "For Sale or Trade" and in that section, the one labelled "Swords and Edged Weapons" I can't make it more clear than that. 4 2 Quote

Dereks Posted October 22 Report Posted October 22 Hey Steven, What type of hada does it have? The pictures are a bit distant. Also, are there visible scratches on the hadori? Quote

Bruce Pennington Posted October 25 Report Posted October 25 Sorry Steve, it's been too long and I don't remember who it was that was searching for one. Good luck with the sale, my friend. Quote
Swords Posted October 25 Author Report Posted October 25 No problem I will probably post it in the for sale or trade section Quote
GeorgeLuucas Posted October 25 Report Posted October 25 Steve, this post is currently already in the for sale or trade section. The moderators already moved it here because this is where it belongs. The auction section is not for seller listings. It’s just for discussion. Hope this helps, and good luck with your sale. Very cool sword! Cheers, -Sam __________________________________________ 2 Quote
