From JK's "How the RIBs for sale section works" thread:

The Ribs for sale section is not a discussion forum, and only the advertiser can post post replies. Please contact them directly.

No problem

Click on the users name and on the drop bar you will see a choice to send a personal message... click on that and put your title in for example ...your rib for sale... then write your message in the large box.

The trouble is, when you want to buy their boat but they don't answer your PMs!

The RIBs for Sale forum is as stated, one way comms. Interestingly, the North American version is two way - and sometimes they really get their undercrackers in a knot. Put it this way, can you imagine the comments from the usual suspects if they COULD reply!?!

Quite a lot of sellers are on RIBnet purely to advertise a RIB for free and forget to check their PMs. If there is a seller who is advertising a "sold" boat or failing to answer PM, report it and one of the Mods will remove it in due course.

Yeah, but not half as frustrating as being able to reply AND/OR edit their advertisements but forbidden to do so....
