I do wish all forums would lock down the ability to reply to "For Sale" ads.
The person selling something has no interest in a million and one other people's views on what they think it's worth, nor are harmless enough "nice *blah* good luck with the sale" posts particuarly useful when all you want to do is sell it, not be told how nice it is.
IMO, people are far less likely to go to the bother of criticising the OP by PM if it's not going to get a following of similar jibes by others.
All the OP is likely to get by PM is expressions of interest or genuine queries.
