Are we allowed to create threads asking if a price I am asking for my Spyder is good?
So I am wondering if I can do that, or if it against the rules? I just wanted to make sure what I am asking is fair, and not gouging anyone.

Ps: If you are going to put uip an advert in the ' For Sale by Owner' section, then please, read & follow the info in the ' How to use....' Sticky at the top of that section - regardless of where you're posting, it always pays to read the Sticky's up the top first!
So I can create a new thread in the general section to get peoples opinions on it? Don't mean to be stupid. Just don't want to break any rules.

Funny that you, coming from Kansas in the USA, should ask about that term, cos when I use 'advert' in discussion or text here in Oz, I'm often accused of needlessly using 'Americanisms'...
I knew what you meant Peter but I have never heard it used before. Around here we use 'ad' as the abbreviation for advertisement.

I don't think I've ever seen or heard "advert" used as a normal word here in the US. I think you have some friends who may not be as familiar with American language as they think they are! As has been noted, "ad" is the usual term here.

Same as an AD. You'd be surprised at how many people don't know it's the same as Advert/advertisement. The english (american english) is somewhat on the hard side to understand. My wife has been in the USA for 50 yrs and still has problems using the correct terms as many of us do.
