To the staff here at ECF, I was just wondering if it would be possible to resort back to having a canadian "for sale/swap" sub forum put into the "Canada Forum" as a one place for all Canada's Forum sub sections. We all know you talented ppl work extremely hard covering all the assorted "hubbub" that goes on day in and day out and that you have worked swiftly to change the "For Sale/Swap" Forum as a streamline for ease of use per description, price, and the rest of the itinerary involved in the sales of members excess. I might be out on a limb here, but several of the canadian members aren't in agreement with the way the new "For Sale" has developed. I suppose we are seeing what the American members were seeing in their For Sale forum now. I am fully in agreement as to how the posts are set up as a complete info for sales, but it has also become tedious for the members to the north to navigate for any sales from Canada. Sometimes wading through several pages to find a few posts. Just wondering if you had had any intuitive ideas to possibly merge the Canadian section of the "For Sale" area into the Canada Forum? Just asking...
Cheers and regards,
Bill

P.S.- I apologize for posting this here as now I see I should have posted it in the Site feedback forum.

I'm not sure why they won't ship here even if it IS e-liquid (actually I know why -- ignorance). I've had many, many juice shipments from the US from vendors and people on the classifieds that were willing and have never had one single snag. Even in the minute chance that the package got seized at Customs, the receiver would get a letter in the mail saying so and it would be returned to the sender when they were finished with it. So then they either re-ship it or return the money. How difficult is that? Considering the fact that it's also very unlikely that anything happen to the package, it's the same as shipping to anywhere else.

I'm sorry but this topic enrages me.

On topic, there is a way to bring up only the Canadian listings. Though there is no way to bring up both Canadian and will ship to Canada listings together, which is what I would like to see. I'm not a fan at all of the new classifieds and hardly ever visit it anymore but if this could be done I would use it a little more often.

We have to remember that this is not Ebay, but a Forum where members can allow others a chance to purchase their extras. Trying to get "selected" forums for the purpose of selling would be great, but just having the sellers forum is actually a bonus on an Forum such as this. With real ECF approved vendors selling PV stuff, it is a nice option allowed for the community. Anything extra such as sub forums done by staff would be a real bonus though.

CONUS only is one of my biggest pet peeves about the classifieds - like you said Chelly it's simply ignorance, but then again look at it from their perspective; if they have the choice of a US buyer to whom they can ship it with 100% certainty that nothing will go wrong or a Canadian member to whom there's a 1 or so percent chance that something might go wrong, why would they want to take the risk and go through the potential hassle.
