Why on Earth not? You are paying for the "platform".

It's what helps keep the forum free for you to use.

Andreas has to generate an income, beyond the adverts.

Every ad is a 'wanted' ad isn't it? If you're selling you want buyers........

The ads here cost peanuts anyway.

Funny. I have been having a long PM discussion with someone who objects to paying for ads this evening.

Hmm and there was someone who ignored a request not to list items for sale in a thread but proceeded to do so, Ronald since removed it - or at least I can't find it anymore.

C'mon guys, this great forum is free, why object to paying for an advert, its a lot cheaper than e bay.

There's no compulsion to pay them. Just place the ad elsewhere.

Indeed.

No one is compelled to place ads here. Anyone is free to try to place a free ad in a place with as much specialist traffic as this.
