Default search for private party sales in your state

That will be nice if there is a way to list all sales in my area. I just hate paying shipping especially for big stuff. Is there a way to do this search?

There is not a way to do that, unless someone specifically states that it is available near Golden CO and you search for 'golden' in the ads. Post a wanted ad for parts that you are looking for and specify that they must be near you.

You know what might work though.. have PPC for each region and have it monitored and linked through the regional forum as well as a listing through the PPC forum. Does this sound feasible? I don't mind having extra duties in my section, it's kinda quiet lately.

That sounds like a lot of work, coding and maintenance. I think your best bet is just to keep your eyes open for the parts you are looking for and check to see where the seller is located.

Alternatively, you should use www.traderspy.com to monitor for the parts you want. It will send you emails each night when any hits are returned on your searches.

is it possible to add original poster location (state) as one of the search option? I know people like to put bogus location but maybe we can stop that (people can only select from a dropdown list). Well thanks anyway. I really dont know what I want to buy. I just like to look around and now its all broken to a lot of diffrent forum (interior, power, etc), makes it hard to look around. Ill try that website you gave me. thanks!

Yeah, the problem is people that put bogus info, etc. Hopefully they post where they are in the topic. Sorry man, maybe when I FINALLY redo the classifieds I will get the location added.
