It doesn't bother me either way, I've never bought from a trader and never will. But, and without wishing to stir a hornets nest up, should a 'Trader' be amending the rules?

Might be a conflict of interest.

Mind you I still can't get my head around the "new rules" far too confusing for me

I have not read all the posts 7 pages is long.....

In my opinion traders on forums can be a good thing, depending
on what they are offering.

Real discounts to members is good, but fleecing is not good.

Ebay has changed things for everybody as first stop for many
is ebay for a price.

As I am not yet a trader unsure how it works but on some other
forums (MGZR) you have to pay a fee to be a private trader
£10 a year or vat registered company from £60

As a private trader the purchase leaves feedback, all items have to have a photo etc.

This works well and avoids any disputes and gives confidence to buyers.

Clearly its against club rules but allowing a link to traders ebay shops may be a pocibility, ok for the seller it costs you money to list but it has good rules and paypal offers secure payment.

How would an owner's club survive without traders?

Where would you get your parts from to keep these Cars on the road!
