This is where people who are interested in photography come to, so surely it's fair to let people, who come here, know that i have good kit to sell.

please either reinstate the thread or delete as it implies that i was doing something improper - spamming.

And maybe people who are interested in buying photography equipment will go to the for sale forum to find it? You don't need to tell them twice.

where's the harm in telling them, they may not wish to spend hours trawling through the for sale section on the off chance that there might be such a kit for sale - what i did was in both the interests of whoever pays for the hosting [less server traffic as i provided a DIRECT LINK to the for sale thread, rather than someone having to trawl through a few different pages] & it was also in the interests of the other users - sure there's a thread here already offering a canon 10d for sale, that's the only reason i did it - this is only descrimination against new users! ya big bullies! :rolleyes: it's a photography related item & it's also for sale - what's wrong with that? forum-fascists!

and someone else did exactly what i did and didn't get his thread locked:

Get this straight; this is not the for sale forum.
You come to this forum to discuss the visual arts, not to pimp your wares.

Any further argument will result in a ban.
