Official request to move "thrift stores" section as a subforum under garage sales, similar to the ebay section.

The topics are too similar as it is. Thrift stores posts used to be lumped in with garage sales posts which made it easy to read them all in 1 place. I keep forgetting to check the thrift stores section.

Can it be moved to make it easier to keep track of all the posts since they are very similar in topic, please?

Both sub forums are under Treasure Hunting forum, no different than Coin Roll Hunting and Coins as separate sub forums under same main forum of Treasure Hunting...

It is more organized as 2 separate forums and easier for new members to find the section they are most interested in as well as not have to wade through one to find the other..... Just how much trouble is it to move up one section of the forum to see thrift stores....?

Just my opinion, I will bring this thread to other mods attention......

Using that logic, the ebay subforum should also be moved under "treasure hunting" as its own forum too, no?

We have a thrift store selection? I need to look. Marty do we have flea markets swap shops and pawn shops too? I also make a lot of attic finds and basement finds,

Not to mention the dumpster diving forum. Maybe it should be on it's own too, I mean after all, what does it have to do with garage sales?

We can make it a sub forum of Treasure Hunting just like garage sales and thrift stores...

My 2 cents.... One forum. Garage sale and thrift store finds together. There isn't that many new threads daily and it's pretty easy to go through them all.

I fell for the Thrift store section thing and posted in it. Waste of time because more folks would have seen my thread and answered a question sooner if I had simply posted under Garage Sales as I had in the past. I'll be sticking with Garage Sale posts from now on...
