    Question For Sale forum sub forums

    I was wondering whether it would be a good idea to have several sub forums within the For Sale forum. It seems that with the large amount of stuff for sale here, that even things posted within a week are down to page 2 or 3 in the for sale forum. I think that limits the sale possibilities as items go further down the list. Maybe have categories such as cameras, lenses, accessories, film?

    Second the motion! In this economy, it's only going to get more and more active.

    Thanks for the suggestion, Diane. We'll discuss it among the moderators.

    If you do that, please also have an option that keeps it like it is, a unified view.

    I'd hate to have even more forums to click through - so long as they remain on the "http://www.largeformatphotography.info/forum/search.php?do=getdaily&days=30" I don't mind!


    I'm not sure how far it should be split though?

    -Cameras
    -Lenses
    -Everything else



    ??


    What then about multiple items in a single thread, for example Jim Galli's with maybe 4 lenses and two cameras?

    I think that the categories I suggested in my original post are sufficient. Cameras, Lenses, Accessories, Film. These seem to be the categories which I see the most of in the FS forum here. For those who aren't wanting to split their kits up, perhaps a notation in the subject line, such as, Camera Kit to indicate multiple items in a single thread would be sufficient?

    And possibly a WTB sub forum?
