Indeed. When I posted about a recommendation for a field camera, I got half a dozen PM's from people trying to sell me one, despite the 30 day rule.
My two cents:
To me, the 30-day rule for BUYERS should be repealed. It should be kept for SELLERS.
I could have bought a bunch of my stuff on this forum. But I didn't - I got it all on eBay because I couldn't buy anything here. Most people getting into large format will spend a large amount of the money up front (first camera and lens, plus film holders, etc.), and then slowly add to their kit over time. This forum is doing their sellers a huge disservice by blocking new members from purchasing.
