For Sale Rules exception

[Jpereira]

I have always felt that as long as members are straightforward in their dealings you should cultivate an open vibe and not put too much friction into user behaviour. Everybody should be welcome, even the passive lurkers!

I see a few for sale posts by a dealer with a note saying it's an exception.

1.I would like to know why this exception was made.
2. Why is the dealer marked as an owner rather than a dealer.
3. Would this mean that now dealers are allowed to put their goods for sale in the forum?
4.we just changed rules for minimum posts from 30 to 90 with the reasoning being we need more contributors and not dealers. Then why are we changing the soul of the forum.

Personally I would welcome dealers and distributors selling in the forum as long as they are tagged officially as dealers.

As Rikhav has mentioned there is an existing relationship with MZ Audio and HiFiMart.

No dealers are still not allowed to sell their goods on the Sale Forum.
An exception was made to offer forum members a good deal on demo/open box items as a special case.

The Sale Forum does not have a feature where a member can be marked as a dealer.
Hence MZ audio was asked to specifically mention their credentials in each listing.
