Why not have one of these? Couldn't hurt to have a section where people who know what they are talking about can sell things or ask around if anyone is willing to sell.

Oh. Would it be because Microsoft is involved with this forum and because of this, they may get sued for something or other?

it just complicates stuff way too much. ive seen scandels on other boards where this guy "sells" stuff to other ppl, takes their money, and never ships the item. then the buyer cant rly do anything but cry about it as its pretty much impossible to track the person.

I actually buy 80% of my stuff from others at other forums. If a mod/leader was assigned tot hat section and placed a layout regarding the rules and guidelines MSFN would not and could not be held responsible.

I personally would like to see such a section created and have seen great success from other boards doing the same.
