I can see some possibilities for abuse, but at least it would keep Marketplace problems out of the regular forums.
I've bought an instrument through the marketplace, but I did some research first. I checked the seller's posts. I saw quickly that he didn't feel the need to post in every thread that came along, but when he did post, it added to the conversation.
I pm'd him about the instrument, and he told me it had been worked on for a specific thing by a particular tech. I contacted the tech and confirmed that he had in fact done that work on that instrument. At that point, I felt pretty comfortable going through with the purchase, and it went smoothly.
Take care,

I suggested an entirely separate site with a different URL. It could still link to this site for convenience. _________________ Bach trumpet artist-clinician
