    Online classifieds - APPROVED and Coming SOON !

    All,

    According to Vito's post in the sticky section, we will soon know what the recommendation of the On-line classifed committee will be. Will we get this or not? I wish I had some positive info on the matter, but I can't say I have heard anything good. The sparce tidbits I have gathered lead me to the believe it is time to launch another round of "contact your regional director" to voice your support of this. Regardless of the recommendation presented by the committee, I beleive the directors can vote to proceed if they believe an online classified section here will benefit the organization.

    The contact information for your director is posted below. Also below, I've also attached a copy of the proposal sent to each directors in March of this year. Now you know as much as they know. This proposal is an accumulation of facts about the internet usage of our organization. You may not agree with everthing proposed, but for the greater good of the organization I hope you can support this effort.

    Please contact your regional director today,
    thank you!
    Tracy Crisler

    Re: Online classifieds - your action required...AGAIN!!

    TC is right, it is time for all to contact their directors. I am afraid there is a very negative and ill wind blowing the sails of this idea. ALL members need to contact their director and any of the other directors you might know showing your support for this proposal.

    Also we ask that any and all that can stay for the Board of Directors meeting on Friday morning after the convention please do so and show your support.

      It's hard to believe in this day and age that an on-line "for sale" forum would be looked at as a negative. I joined NCRS a few years ago, I've never bought or sold any item from the Driveline, but I do go on-line to buy/sell parts.

        It is time for all members to contact their directors and ALL the NCRS officers expressing support for this issue. If attending the convention in two weeks, if at all possible, stay for the Board of Directors meeting on Friday morning. It starts at 7:00 AM Show your support for this proposal

            Mike,

            Agree with you, but please send a email to your director. Take a quick look at the proposal attached to the bottom of my original post (it's an easy read). Find something you can agree with in there and include it as a reason to support the move to the modern age of the internet.

            I just did....

            thanks for your support!

                  Dick,

                  That's exciting and ....Thanks for the BREAKING NEWS!!!

                  I think in the long run it could really increase forum traffic and move NCRS into the 21st century.

                    Great news. I don't have anything to sell but there's a lot of stuff that I need to buy and would much prefer buying from reputable fellow NCRS members.

                      Re: Online classifieds - your action required...AGAIN!!

                      I have an entire page of C3 parts to sell ....
                      tons of NOS and OEM take-off items.

                      I am going to purposely wait until I can list it here - then I can show how effective it is selling online.


                      MANY MANY MANY THANKS to the NCRS organization for taking a chance.

                        You do realize Ken that there are disreputable NCRS members who have been buying and selling for years through various other outlets including The Driveline. I expect they will appear on these pages as well. Caveat emptor.

                          This would be a great opportunity to digitise Driveline ads and services, like other sites i have visited. I'm assuming like me, many of the exceptional people here are also members of other sites that do have this facility. My concern is that if potential new members like the ability to get technical/restoration information, and can buy parts, may be lost to NCRS.

                              Great News - agree with Terry - as with any hobby some folks may try to rip you off - so check 'um out before you send the $$$$$'s - condition and correctness of many parts are subjective - to the person selling they could be the best they have ever sold, but to the buyer the parts may be junk
