When I read a For Sale message on the forum, my screen suggests that I need to upgrade my user profile/privileges.

Presently, I get this message to all For Sale messages posted on the forum....

"(You have insufficient privileges to reply here.)"

So, do I need to buy VIP membership in order to participate in replying to these messages please? Or is it because I am a relatively new forum user?
…..I can reply to all other types of user message and create new message threads ok.

Thank you
 
To pm a forum member you and the recipient both need to be VIP members.

Yes I can see sense if I was trying to PM the poster of the message, but all I'd like to do is send an open forum reply.

Presently I cannot do this because I seem not to have sufficient privilege. ….I just assumed this was because I have not bought the VIP membership.
 
Yes they do, it is to allow VIP members to get the first chance to contact the seller

It is a VIP benefit

Umm. without VIP membership there is no other way to contact the seller!
 
Did not know we got a sticker! Been a member for three years and never seen one in the post yet! :D
 
You won’t the sticker is only for new vip’s that joined from August this year.

That's a but like the a typical energy company offer - '...new British Gas Customers get £100 of M&S vouchers!" (...but sod the old loyal ones!...).

Only joking by the way - didn't want a sticker anyway... :sad

:D:D:D
