Get burnt a couple times, your feedback rating dropped and no one at OSO even return an email and you wouldn't bother paying either.

No businesses are permitted to advertise without a paying membership.

Anyone is permitted to list their used or surplus parts in swap shop. No, a business is not permitted to post items for sale making this a retail outlet for any reason period.

Yes lil red, I agree...the feedback rating was added per member's request but it is total bs when someone flat out tries to tarnish your reputation because they either can't read a description or they are to lazy to contact you about an issue with parts they purchased for months and months and then expect you to do something for them.

Its even more bs that even though a moderator contacts admin on an issue like this it gets ignored.

There is a ton of nonsense on some other sites where parts are sold and it used to be worth it to use this outlet for buying and selling as people know each other and are taken care of and treated accordingly.

Lately its frustrating to see zero effort from admin. It is like they want the site to fail....

Just my .02........

I know you tried to help with the situation and I appreciate it. Paying to the site doesn't gain you anything so I'll just keep buying parts off you that I may or may not need instead
