Actually, When keeping an open mind, you might see that this Forum has served as a very usefull medium, for Buyer/seller disputes to be resolved, by opening up lines of communication between two people, that might otherwise have not have happened (got connected or reconnected)....
...And By having a forum section for buyers/sellers/traders, it would keep such disputes or miscommunications that others don't really care about, off of the main & most used reggae discussion tab. No one wants to read about or listen to arguements, but I think that typed discussions, as opposed to verbal discussions, often sound more heated than they really are. It is the people who have no true insight to add to the discussion (like saying "Fight!"[LEGGO] and stuff like that) that makes the topic seem like a waste of time....Those are the comments that should be omitted/edited! But these discussions, just like the ones about "your favorite artist", are just as useful to users , but not if they are adding useless comments that add no value to the actual topic of dicussion (like the whole schoolyard comment - did that actually help, really?)
Just asking you to keep an open mind guys. aDAm

That's true and everybody is old enough to decide who to trust and who not. I really miss this section, not really to promote my own sales, but just hang around from time to time when the main forum is getting boring and sharing impressions about tunes sold here and there.

maybe the BUY/SELL/TRADE forum can have a new beginning in the leggorockers and friends website

I'm with you. Definitely spend less time on this site since it's removal. A site stemming from record culture now has no records....just T shirts.

This site in its original form was created for people to discuss reggae in general and was never meant as record shop.
People who are true to RA will always be around to discuss the music irrespective of having a buy / sell / trade page.
Since its removal i`ve noticed several people have dissapeared completely. People who were only using this site as a means to make a buck or two.
I`m not sorry the page as gone, imo it created more problems than it resolved with grievances, hostilities etc.
This thread in itself is proof in progress.
