Hot deals is on temporary lock-down:
https://www.bikeforums.net/showthread.php?t=97950
There is a For Sale forum, but it's limited to folks with upgraded memberships (contributors).
PM Joe if you have something you'd like to promote.

I've seen sites that have gone fully paid memberships only in this manner, please tell me this isn't going to be happening to BF.

BFN will never be paid only. Selling items directly to other members on the forums will now be a benefit for upgraded memberships, or however you want to twist that around.

well i think thats fair. I upgraded without that incentive. But i mean If you lurk often around here, its worth the 25 i think.
Heck, you can learn as much or more than you will by reading barnetts for a fraction of the fee

Joe, I noticed that the announcement in the For Sale section says that only paid members will be allowed to post. Does that mean that free members won't be able to respond to a sale item? I realize we could just PM the seller, but there are some uptight members here who have them turned off for whatever reason. (I should mention that I have no problem with only paid members being allowed to sell.)

I too miss the "hot deals" section. This is a forum: the goal is unlimited sharing of information. Along with the good information comes some amount of useless stuff. I'll filter through trolls, inflated egos and spam all the same because with it comes insight and coupon codes.
Bring back "hot deals!"
