The forum guidelines state:-

Quote
Posting in For Sale sections
Absolutely no links to your Ebay auctions, or Ebay auction numbers.

No posting for sale items in the 'wrong' areas to get around the postcount limits.

Currently, need to be a Junior Member (over 50 posts) to advertise your car, and an Intermediate Member (over 250 posts) to advertise parts.

If you are a buyer, please ensure you are happy and confident with the seller before parting with money.

HTH :y

Thanks for that. I also just stumbled on this info myself.

Is it frowned upon to offer a part for free in a different forum?

If you PM an admin and ask nicely they may well let you post it and move it for you

Would not think it a problem if you ask an Admin like Hotel21 to move it for you.
The reason for the guideline is so that new comers don't have peoples money and then don't supply the goods. :y

Yep, the post limit is set due to issues with some non-established members taking cash and not supplying items.

Free parts and wanted requests we normaly are happy to move as they do not expose members to un-due risk.

Note, moving to general chat!  :y
