Why is it so damn hard to put your location in the subject line?

On another forum I'm on, you can't post a "for sale" thread without a price. "Best offer" posts get deleted.
As little information as I see in some of these "for sale" posts, you would think that they aren't serious about making a sale.

Agree.... 100% At least on panels, a location should be required... it would save a lot of people a lot of time... I'm headed to Vegas this week, would be cool to be able to quickly scan to see if anyone had panels for sale in Vegas but I'm not going to waste my time opening every ad and hoping then emailing when they don't even bother including a city.

AGREED! Batteries and panels and anything big and heavy should be required to list a location.........If not, we should Drag'Em!
Thank YOU!!!!Thanks, for the post, I just posted something for sale and used your advice.
I stuck this thread… any other suggestions for those trying to sell their stuff?
Put the price in it.
Often when there’s no price it’s an unrealistic expectation of what something is worth and a waste of time to PM.

It's not happy hour, I'm just like this.
TOO MUCH INFORMATION simply does not apply when placing an add.
Item - specs - location - price/qty
Examples:
LifePO4 - 280ah - NC, USA - $1k/ea.
Sunpower 305W Raleigh NC $10k/10
Mppt 30a 12/24V - ships USA - $1k obo
Most people aren't salespeople. They don't know to do things like that. I feel your frustration, though. Hopefully this will help the uninitiated.

Just to add to that, putting your location in your profile helps in making responses more relevant. I have to remember everytime I respond that the poster may be in a different country with a different market and different voltage, phase and Hz. In many cases I have to ask a bunch of questions before I can even understand the context.

Craigslist is a good way to find panels in a given area.

Mandatory location field or tag for For Sale / Trade posts. I have it on my forum.
