Read the fourm rules  :smiley:

Whilst that is possibly one of the shortest answers possible, the issue I think is that although new users need 10 posts to use the PM system and 25 posts to list an item for sale, there's nothing listed in any rules I can see which would explain why someone with less than 10 posts cannot post in the for sale section and reply to an advert.

Perhaps an oversight on my part for not finding it, or Admin for not making the rule visible enough, or perhaps the user permissions for the section are not as they should be.

Nothing wrong with the rules OR the permissions.

Hmm, care to point to the relevant rule please, cos I'm having the devils own job finding why he's having trouble posting in the for sale section.

You need 25 posts to post in the FS section

The rules say you need 25 posts to list an item for sale in that section. I did look and there's no mention at all of needing 25 posts to reply to a topic.

If I've not wrote enough posts yet that's fair enough... Seems like a strange 'rule' when I only want to contact someone about the item....
Yeah it's the chap with the silver gt tdi 140... Thank you for the help guys

Do you still need a certain amount of posts to PM someone as you could always do that tom38 but mods would know better than me :)

Yes, 10 posts needed to access/activate PM system. This is not a lot of posts, and can be achieved by posting a few helpful/inquisitive/complimentary posts in the build threads, general area, etc.

Good luck with buying a Golf Tom.  :happy2:
