Thanks.

Aaaah.  Facebook.  The thing I have been resisting for years while all the family around me take pictures of food and frolics and such and share the most inane of activities.  Now I have a great pressure to join in.  Here I go !

People sell parts as well as trains on HOExchange and HOSwap.

I don't do facebook; too much drama and negative stuff.  I think the old HOInterchange switch over but I didn't follow.

HO yard sale is good. The mods keep a close eye on the group. There is an HO parts exchange as well  as others. I also belong to several historical groups.

Yes, thanks.  Any more suggestions about where to look would be good.  I don't do facebook although I have a dummy account and I can't come up with the HO Yard Sale group or the HO Exchange (not on facebook, but I don't know where this is on the internet)  I will have to get some Facebook lessons from my wife and daughter.

Ho Yard sale is a facebook group,so is HO Parts Exchange. If you try to join most groups with a dummy or fake name account you will be rejected. One of the things I prefer about facebook groups over yahoo is pictures. When I was on yahoo they did not have pictures I have no idea if that is still the case or not.

Oops, sorry.  The Yahoo groups are HOSwap and HOExchange.

Maybe there could be a buy/sell category here?

I can agree with that.  A buy, sell, swap, section in here.

Model Railroader has a policy of intervening on behalf of customers who have disputes with companies that advertise with us. Allowing sales on this Forum would likewise open us up to liability if someone who sold here tried to cheat a customer. Since, unlike our print ads, we make practically no money on the Forums, allowing sales here isn't worth our time.
