Re: Classified section
I understand what you are saying, but again, looking at this from the other side:
I post a used part for sale at $12. You want it and ask me the condition and to ship it to you. We make arrangements and I charge you another $10 shipping. You get this part and it is broken, or doesn't fit your needs. You complain to me and I tell you to stick it, you bought a used part, as is, no warranty.
Now, you get mad and me and you complain to iboats about it, because it was on there site that you arranged this transaction. If they don't do anything (because they had nothing in it and might have lost a new part sale because of it) you are mad at them. Or they can spend time trying to mitigate the problem, but that is costing them time and resources for something they had nothing in. In the end, both parties will probably be upset at iboats and all they did was offer a service that hurt their core business.
If it weren't for the fact that bad things sometimes happen during used part sales, they would possibly do it. But because it would be something they could have little control over, unless they were charging a fee for the service, it would only hurt them. And how many people would really be excited about a fee?
Been discussed here lots of times. Same result.
