I have many posts on this site saying "Where can I go to buy (whatever)".

How are any of those threads any different from "Where can I go to buy a kit that is no longer in production".

Where is the common sense. The one guy in the midwest that has that kit, and reads the threads once a week, is not going to go over to the wanted ads. He just won't.

But he might see an updated thread.

Do I need to contact Hearst with the list of all the stuff I've compiled as to why this site doesn't work for the jet guys, who arguably have the most money to spend on product that they promote?
