Default Warning i got

I'm not a vendor, I buy what I need for my cars, I have two, and I buy parts in lots to get what I need, the rest I sell off to offset the cost to me, I'm disabled, retired.
The website I point to is not a commercial website, it is a free website that I started to use so people who want to see what I have left thats for sale.
I have a fancy ad that caught your attention, I thought that is what all the extra headings and underlines you make available when you list something are to be used for.
I was able to post photos when I was a paid member, that ran out and I am unable to be a paid member at this time.
The small amount I make on what I have available doesn't pay for the gas to the post office, see the prices I'm trying to get for the parts. The fans, I needed one, I was able to get old and 3 new ones, I kept one and selling the rest. You have judged me wrong, I was trying to be a nice guy selling what I had to members at a great price. If you want to be mean, I guess that's your power to be.
peace out,
bryanjamesjr

I was really hurt by the attack I got. I have been a member for 5 years now and try to be a good one and help other members. I put a fancy ad up, they make the typing options available, and I used them, and I got warned for using what they gave me to use. I can't put photos in the ad, so I got a free website where I can put the photos up, you can't buy the parts there, just see.
The ad has been up for months. I feel really bad and hurt.

Dude, I can understand what you're trying to say and what you're trying to do. It probably is a good deal for someone to work with you for parts too..

But IMO, you say you buy extra's and then sell them off just to clear the cost to yourself and save some money. This is how many stores work. Unless you're going to give away the left over extras, or buy 4 fans and do a direct 4 way split on the cost with 3 other people, you are buying cheap and selling higher, than makes you a vendor, big or small, still a vendor.

If you go that way no one can sell anything on here.
Everyone buys a new part for their car, and then sells the old one here to offset their cost, that's all I did.
I have been a member for years, sold maybe 6-7 parts,
That's one or 2 a year, I'm really making a living at it.
peace out,
