That was a few years back. He was kind of a pain in the rump.

Any BS&T thread that is bumped for no other reason than it fell off the front page. The way I see, if my item didn't sell, it's because my price is too high, or I'm selling it in the wrong place.

This one bugs me almost as much as starting four threads at the same time to sell four separate items in the same category.

I miss the Adrian (I think?) thread with the lotion and the Honus Wagner. My favorite part is it being photoshopped in and in the mirror in the back you can totally see it's not in his hand a permanent gem.

Folks should alert me or another moderator if members post theirs item more than once in the same section at the same time. They can easily be combined. And yes, if something doesn't sell and falls off the front page it might be priced too high or there just isn't demand for it on the forum. At least lower the price a little if you do that.

Do you happen to mean like the 2 in the Ebay announcement section of the BST that are bumped every few days? By my calculation, one has been bumped on average roughly every 3.5 to 4 days over the past 2.5 years. If you really need to advertise that much, purchase a banner ad.

Joseph Heller would have appreciated the absurdity.

I can't marry you.
Why not?
Because you're crazy.
Why am I crazy?
Because you want to marry me.

Oh, crap.
