New FS section for cal pickups

Maybe it's just me but it seems there are a ton of parts for sell in the california area. Problem is almost all parts are for pick up only. Frankly I'm tired of seeing parts I want only to find out they are from california and the seller is only taking pick up orders. Or maybe make a FS section titled local pickups?

i think they do that mainly because there is enough interest in so cal to sell an item and sometimes depending on the seller it might be for the better of both parties for all you know they could turn out to be a bad seller for forgetting or not having time for going to fed ex/ups etc...

Sellers are supposed to put that in the subject (Local Pickup SoCal).

I don't mind it but it wouldn't be a bad idea to have a FS section for shipable items vs. a FS section for local pickups only. If someone doesn't sell in the local they can always repost it in the shipable.

Seems most people who do "local pickup only" are doing it for size reasons. Or they're just lazy and don't want to find/buy a box.

a perfect example what what I'm talking about is the new FS post about the 3" single side exhaust. What a bummer it wasn't listed as FOR LOCAL PICK UP ONLY. Sorry to pick on you socal guys but you guys always have the parts I want.

if it's local only, the subject of the post should clearly state it.

FS: HKS Legamax exhaust (Tampa, FL pickup only) $1000

If it isn't already a forum rule, it should be made into one.


edit: someone already beat me to it.
