I once bought something through PMs on a message board, and it worked out well, but I avoid it as a general rule since Etsy is so easy, and even Craig's List leaves a better evidence trail than PMs should something go wrong. Since I do have a shop, I'm being very careful not to offer anything on the boards. I like the idea of a for sale Friday or other set day of the week. Finding parts is hard work and listings about what shops and sites and people have what for sale and trade would help SO MUCH. It took me over an hour to find a bobbin winder tire for my Davis NVF, and then I couldn't buy it because the store had a $5 minimum purchase. (I know I *could* pass the extras along, but buying $5 of them at $0.35 each that would mean a lot of bobbin winder tires to move! *laughs*)
