Not meaning to hijack ANTPER's thread, but I didn't know about this either. This site has been such a valuable resource and the people here are so friendly, I'm going to become a supporter also. (I'm especially interested in the "Flood control" aspect of this -- we've had so much rain lately and I need a new sump pump. It will be nice to not worry about the floods any more. (just kidding... ) But seriously - If you need any help on the "techie" side, I've been in computers and IT since the mid- to late-1980's, and have hosted and moderated several forums in the past. I'm not retired yet so I don't have "unlimited" free time, but could certainly help out some, if needed. A question that's a bit more on topic - If we see something for sale and wonder if others might be interested, is it encouraged to post like this? And we can't post links to a Craigslist or eBay sale item? I just saw a 416-H posted on Craigslist near me for $800, original owner, looks like it's been well maintained, decent deck, etc. I don't have the bucks or I might grab it myself since I seem to have been infected with the WH "disease". -Dave 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry, the moderators will promptly close the thread down. It has happened to me a few times, hate to see a great buy go unnoticed by our members but Rules are Rules. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I may hang onto it as my son is clearing some property. I didn't think I needed one then boom it shows up. I'm considering keeping this 312 and throwing the 37 inch deck and bagging system and selling my 310-08 eventually. This 312 has a rear mulching discharge set up and gonna give it a try as I'm not a mulching kinda of guy. I bag. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was @davem1111 that was almost crossing the line. If you posted a link to a for sale site or location and contact information for something that isn't yours then you are probably going to hear from the moderators. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'll stay away from posting anymore asking what do you think this is worth posts and stay out of trouble. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Horse Newbie 7,074 #32 Posted April 17, 2022 (edited) Unless I’m wrong, and someone please correct me if I’m wrong, it’s okay to post questions about someone’s opinion on how much value they put on an item- whether you are buying or selling. The thing that is not allowed is a link posted to that sale ad, or seller. I take it as we don’t want Red Square to become another Craigslist or FB marketplace. Also if I’m correct, if we are “ wanting to buy”, or “wanting to sell” something , we should post an ad in the Redsquare classifieds… I think on for sale items, we are to set a price and not try to auction to “ highest bidder”. Someone please correct me if I have misspoken… Edited April 18, 2022 by Horse Newbie 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
