Plug forum: buying/selling/trading
Hey team,
What are everyone's thoughts on starting up a buy/sell/trade forum on this site for plugs?
Any Luck?

BIG money generator for tammy he takes 20% profit on every single piece sold in there. $5 out of every $25 lure.
I would bet you right now that if you went in that forum that there are at LEAST 10 maybe 20 people who are not paying the sportfishing exise tax. Not to mention sales taxes and income tax.
Not a tax freak but at least do the %$%$%$%$ above the table like people who DO....
This bull%$%$%$%$ is coming out of each and every one of your pockets.
Think about this next time someone bitches an epo didn't show up or your states stocking program put less fish out for you to catch.
Go spend your money in your local shop.

trades are always better for ANYTHING
because thus far it is not taxable...
that being said... while i agree with you 100% SALTY
i also have to point out that our GOOD tax dollars taken directly
from fishermen were not spent on improving the resource
because other people stole it for their own GAIN
and i have yet to see heads roll or anyone go to jail over it.
The last thing S-B wants to do is be like the Other site.

There has been some consideration for it but it would need to be fully legit. However, since I'm so far behind on other stuff to get done - not any time soon  |

I bid 600.00 for a mostly used boone needlefish, with one rusty treble hook and a broken screw eye.  |
60 % of the time, it works every time.

Are you talking about a forum that builders would be selling their own stuff in or one that a guy like you or me would sell plugs we didn't build but we're not using? I was thinking the latter but everyone else seems to be thinking your talking about stuff you build. |

No commercial sales. All plugs that we did not build (RM, BM, GRS, etc.) that we bought, but have doubles of, or couldn't afford in the first place, etc.

I think the current classified forum works in its present format. It has a little bit of everything in there.

Gotcha, I'd have to agree that we don't need a sub forum. There's not enough volume in the classifieds forum to warrant it. |

I agree that the regular classifieds here are fine. I'd hate to see it get like it is on the other site.
On a side note, keep an eye on the classifieds in the next week or so if you like custom plugs. If things keep going the way they have been for me, I may be looking to trade some of my plugs for golf clubs. |

No I think the market has become flooded with the stuff and people don't have money to spend on stuff like that right now.
Look at timmies site there's dozens of threads in there of people trying to sell the same stuff.

The plug madness is more of an off season thing. I'm an expert on the subject. |
