What bugs me is when someone revives a very old post by responding to it as if it is current, and I read half way through it before I notice the date.

Sometimes reviving an old post might be relevant such as when someone needs help with a similar issue as described in the old post, but even then I think it would be better to say "I see a similar issue discussed in this thread" and just provide a link so old guys like me don't try to help someone who hasn't been on the Forum in years.

I guess I see the post as 'no harm', 'no foul' ......right now.

If someone uses him (not likely now) and he IS legit and they give good feedback then there you are, someone else to add to the 'good guys' column.

And if nobody uses him what happens?......he goes away and he shows no interest and he forever shows up as one post.

The moderators will take care of it regardless of what I say.....it was just an answer to the question, "should he be removed".  I have no dogs in the race, just stating,  I see no harm......at the moment.

  His username and real name are the same as the name of the company he’s promoting, in the only post he’s ever made. He’s not a member helping other members, hes a company advertising his service.

I would say no.....he hasn't proven to be shifty in any way....yet....his answer, I feel, is in line with the post topic.

Yes, I agree Bruce.....may be legit, maybe just 'getting his name in the pot'.

To use one of these services I would go in naturally Leary (if for no other reason than you're just turning your stuff over to a stranger).....not saying that feeling is right or wrong just that that's how I would feel.

I would definately have to use someone that through word of mouth of a 'successful transaction' or through knowing the person beforehand.

Regardless, Bruce, that wasn't a slam in your direction.

Same reason I don't respond to a Seller that just joined.

Yep. My point was more pointed at the posting of an advertisement.

I agree that on first read the poster was, like Bruce said, basically an advertisement....joining with that first post.

But to Joe's point....helpful info (regardless of when it is posted) is timeless.

I've never understood the complaint "you know this is an old post" (this comes up on forums a lot)......if the answer is relevant then it's relevant, regardless of timeframe. IMO

No, didn't notice that. Just thought I'd pass along helpful info. Thanks for the heads up.

to many jeeps, parts, and accessories to list here, but apparently enough to keep me in trouble with my wife.

  Are you guys aware that you’re responding to a 4-1/2 year old thread that was awakened by an advertisement?

You could look for a storage lot and wait until warmer weather to go get it. Several years ago I borrowed a son's Silverado and rented a trailer from U-Haul (they wouldn't rent me a trailer for my then 4 cylinder Tacoma). Drove from WV to Albuquerque in early March to pick it up. Decent trip and saved some money. For more recent shipping, just had a car shipped to WV from Chicago in a covered trailer. $700. Pretty short trip but by the time the driver delivered two other cars that blocked mine in it took a week.
