Hey, I have read the rule about the new Marketplace access policy, but I've been a member since 2011 and still don't have access to it. What can I do to retrieve permissions? Thanks!

you should be grandfathered , best is taking contact with an administrator ( you can do this reporting your own post by clicking on the black triangle next to “ promote to article” that puts you in direct communication with the administrator on duty

I just changed your authorization.

Please try again (you might have to log off and on first).

I'm having the same issue! A member since 2007 but can't access the marketplace. Can you also change my permissions?
You should have access now, once you've logged off and on.

That's either not 20s or 30s, or it is not a Mk VI.

Hi,

I have a vintage mouthpiece to sell and I’d like to be able to post it here.

I cannot find any info. on using the marketplace and in the messaging section, one needs a name/address to send the message to, but I have no idea what that would be, so hoping someone will see this, I will ask here.

What do I need to do to use the marketplace? I first became a member of this forum many years ago, btw. The 2020 "join date" next to my image isn't accurrate. That's the date I did a password re-set and for some reason I got a "welcome" email with a link.

Thanks in advance.

1. Marketplace eligibility

Eligibility for both viewing and participating in the for sale and want to buy sections are determined by:

a. If you were a member prior to June 16, 2013, you should have Marketplace Privileges regardless of your post count.*
b. For those members joining aft June 16, 2013, Marketplace Privileges are attributed after six months AND 50 posts relevant to saxophone or some aspect of music making. This does not include very short, irrelevant or "+1" type posts that are merely added to increase post count. Repeatedly making such posts will be viewed, and dealt with, as spam.

A minimum of fifty (50) relevant forum posts required in order to participate in Marketplace. Please understand the purpose of this rule is to establish you as a legitimate saxophone player/enthusiast. When deciding whether or not to deal with you, most SOTW members want some assurance that you are in fact a fellow sax enthusiast, and not someone who might have less than honorable intentions. Your forum posting history helps establish that. THIS IS NOT CRAIG'S LIST.

If in the judgment of SOTW staff you appear to be adding frivolous posts just to reach the 50-post minimum, we reserve the right to reset your post count and deny you access to Marketplace.

* Those who qualify, but need their permissions changed to access will still have to contact the staff to have this manually changed. Those who already qualify will be unaffected by this change, and still have full access.

Those who try to solicit or encourage using the forum's PMing feature or post ads outside of the Marketplace in order to avoid this restriction will have their offending posts deleted, and an infraction up to and including a full ban issued.
***

[and so on, etc, etc, etc]

Thanks for replying. As I mentioned above, I first joined about 10+ years ago. I see the rules provide that members prior to 2013, which I am despite the mistaken 2020 next to my picture, can use the marketplace, so I have sent a message to the administrator asking about this (similar to situation of person that started this thread). Haven't seen a reply yet - it's only been a short time of course, but if you are in a position to be helpful, that would be great. Thanks.

You may have beeb joining with another account, certainly not with the one you are writing now.


Best thing is to report your post by clicking the black triangle with an exclamation mark to the bottom left of any post , administrators on duty get an alert.

If you send a PM to any particular administrator he may or may be not on duty ( or not notice it), the report triangle is bound to be seen.

Agree with milandro about you probably having an older account, separate from the one you are using right now. Do you recall a different username or email you used for the site in the past? If you do, send that info to me by PM and we'll help you regain access
