Quoted from Yoko2una:$6500 BSD - wasn’t that the first BSD? Or did a newbie see that thread and think their regular router BSD (but with LEDs!) must be worth the same?

It’s quite simple. Quit allowing new members from posting FS ads. 50-100 non-spamming posts minimum. Clean this crap up. Other newbs then see these crap ads and then think their games are worth as much. Doing nothing positive for the hobby.
This underwhelming scrutiny on new member FS ads, and allowing anyone with a pulse to kick the door down to an enthusiast site ask stupid high prices is making me consider not posting my next game FS here. They want to maximize their revenue by allowing everything to be posted? Better not alienate your real members in the process.
I get it totally that the ads you are mentioning are very frustrating but for the most part the pinside market is pretty legit. I check it daily and for every one ridiculous ad there are twenty or so legit ads. Most with below market pricing (if you take out retailers etc...). I’ve sold a few games on here and have a bit of a feedback rating and overall I am very pleased.
I highly doubt at this point they are going to put a post limit on making a for sale ad but who knows... If you keep posting about it maybe it will catch on lol.
