It comes and goes. Its spring - time to be outside.

I've been busy working on some of my other rolling scrap heaps. Unfortunately I'm a Mopar guy so there is always wiring to be repaired... I'll be back to starting new threads with newbie questions soon enough.

There is a Facebook place that some here use also.
Funny, see many posts here for a month, then nothing for a few days, then just a few for a couple of weeks.

Spring fever everyone is busy cleaning and servicing their rigs,F/B is alright you don't need to post your life there though.There are some sharp guys on the bus pages that have worked in the factories that know every inch of the GM,MCI,Eagle,Vanhool and Prevost buses.Good 2 strokes guys on the Detroit pages to most of those will post a little videio or send a  PM showing  you how to check and repair a 2 stroke and it is free

the info and help here is chump change compared to all the facebook sites. thousands of them covering every subject under the sun. Some sites wont allow you to join unless you are approved. Usually a coupke of general subject related questions. Many users are under their wifes facebook page. And Marketplace is much more than craigslist or others ever were.

And Marketplace is much more than craigslist or others ever were.

It can also hit or miss.

I've had things sell on Marketplace before I've even finished writing ad copy for the second item I wanted to sell.

I've also had things on Marketplace for six weeks that still haven't sold - in this case, a brand new Selmer Bari Sax mouthpiece, listed on several of the saxophone pages.

Regardless, the best thing about Marketplace is that it's FREE!

FWIW & HTH. . .

Never understood listing an item for sale on a platform that was members-only. Seems like one would want a marketplace open to all.

I don't do Facebook and have no plans to. None of my family either, so it never even crosses our minds to look there for something we're looking to buy.

[chessie4905]

Millions are on there. But many are concerned about their privacy as is normal. Anybody can see our posts here and over time can glean info about most of us.How many here don't feel comfortable listing even the state they reside in.
Even good sites for solar, ev's and any subject under the sun that you may have an interest in. Detroit Diesels, Vintage buses, Bus Conversions, Railroads, Drones, Camping, etc.

Nothing is free. If it looks like it is you just haven't dug up the hidden cost yet.

And if you have a Harley, you put it on HOG website I guess. We all have old buses. And the viewership of this....old buses. Perhaps the greatest place to market?
