99.99% sure the answer is no. I can only make this assumption due to the fact there is no place to put the country of origin into the listing, hence no way for you to search for only a select number of countries.

Brianpore and other B&S gurus --
Is there a way to switch B&S subforums once you create a listing? I inadvertently posted a listing to the general B&S thread, but it belongs in SW&D. Or do I need to delete that listing and create a new one?
In a related question -- and apologies if this is staring me in the face in the FAQs -- what's the best way to post a listing to multiple subforums at once?
Apologies for noob questions, but I'm planning to sell a bunch of stuff in advance of moving and want to get housekeeping out of the way.
Thanks, Peter

I thought at first it might be a 15 day version of the (3 day) 2 day bumper but it works out more expensive.

Granted, it sucks when someone expresses interest in buying something, only to fade into the ether, but to doom their entire B&S prospects just seems inordinately shitty.

If there was not a transaction then the person who left the feedback violated the feedback rules. He had to have stated that he was the seller and the other guy was the buyer and then checked the box which states I certify that all of the information I have entered here is correct and complete. If there was no transaction then he certified a falsehood.

Hey there. I'm the person who left the feedback. Not quite sure why Brianpore wants to have the conversation in a closed B&S thread instead of here. To be clear, if you guys are admins and are requesting that I remove the feedback, I'll be happy to, but if you don't mind, I'd like to explain my reasoning. First off, here's our (admittedly one-sided) conversation. Generally speaking, I think that's pretty polite communication. Furthermore, I only sent messages when I saw that the buyer was either online or had been online recently. As I'm sure you know, the forum has a tool that tells you that. I always gave time to reply, and was never pushy or mean about it. The fact is, I did turn down other offers (perhaps naively?), and all I was looking for was confirmation as to whether the user did or did not want the items. If he said that he changed his mind, didn't have the cash, or was drunk at the time, I absolutely would have been fine with that. This forum is full of impulse buyers (I'm guilty of that personally) and sometimes we change our minds. I don't necessarily think you should be punished for that.
My actual negative feedback was in regards to the fact that he chose not to reply. And I wrote that. I feel like that information is valuable if you are considering exchanging money with someone you haven't personally met.
That's my two cents. If you'd like me to take it down, or think my reasoning is bad, I will remove the feedback. Thanks.
