    Ok,
    I'm just going to throw this out there as it's recently come to light that some of this is going on.
    This is a general warning to both buyers and sellers who use this Marketplace.

    The purpose of this forum, and this thread within it, is so A&R regulars can openly buy and sell to each other Arcade and Retro related goodies without all the tedious messing around in hyperspace Adverts.
    This means that we, the moderators and category moderators, would ask that there be no off thread/PM based trading, that offers be made here, within the thread.
    Another good reason for it is, if something goes amiss with the transaction, that both parties are liable for intervention from the moderators, meaning things are safer all round.
    If two users persist in using PM's to conduct a transaction then there is little that I or anyone else can do, and there is precious little sanction to be brought to bear if that is the continued.
    But, persistent hassling via PM/text/calls/carrier pigeon, in fact any unwanted communications that come to light from one user to another, however well established that user might be, will result in censure and disciplinary action taken.
    So, be warned, ok?

    Thanks.
