Default We have a for sale place

I think anything else would be too hard to monitor and police

You need to watch out for the scam artists.

But there are 0ther forums that have it.

Default true -

but it would be a little uncontrolled.

and there would be competition with some of the advertisers too.

Default Re: There would be no control issue. I am not opposed to paying for advertisements but let's be clea

You failed to mention that this is a free site. Where do you expect us to make revenue from? And why should a potential seller be able to connect with (monetize) a huge Audi population for free?

Yes it is commercial in nature, but it is also a control issue. It is both.
