I didn't want to add to this until now, since I was one looking onto getting this S/8 and I didn't want to call anymore attention to this thread. Obviously we should be able to discuss instruments for sale, however we should be careful and use some discretion with what we say publicly. This type of thread should be in the For Sale section. Certain questions can be asked behind the scenes to someone you think might have the answer. That's one of the reasons why we now have the ability to PM and email others right from the forum.johnallg wrote:This type of thread ruins the chances for those already pursuing said instrument, and possibly raises the price of the instrument if the seller is aware of us. This happened to me just last week with a '80 $1300 V63 I was pursuing.
The regular members of the forum are here to help each other as well as new members and are happy to do so. We can all take advantage of that, we just have to think about how we ask about and post instruments for sale before we do so.
