Angry Why Are My Posts Being Deleted?

Hey Admin, what gives?

Please explain why this post is inappropriate here?

Replacing a block or crank with like kind & quality is a technical question IMHO. I am not trying to sell them. Many things to consider.

Perhaps you would care to suggest where else it should be posted to knowledgeable porschephiles?

??????????????????????????????

I see two posts from you about this topic in the Porsche Marketplace Discussion forum (see, e.g.https://forums.pelicanparts.com/porsche-marketplace-discussion/1108107-insurance-value-block-crank-72-t.html)-- did you also post this in the 911 technical forum?

You can report your own thread, and it will open a dialogue window that sends a pm straight to the moderator.

I read your thread in marketplace. It was about replacement value and shipping insurance iirc. Seems they put it in the right place.

Well, the 'right place' has 84 looks and no replies for the parts I have boxed and want to ship tomorrow. Looking for good info, if the 'right place' yields no answer, is it the 'right place'? I went looking for answers where I thought I might get a response. On both the insurance and the serial number musing.

Perhaps because I am neither buying nor selling no one is interested in replying. Have any suggestions as to insurance value?

If you already sold the parts, insure them for the price they were sold. That’s about as simple as it gets.

Moderators did their job and moved your thread, appropriately IMO. Maybe the law of common denominator is your answer to the question about the ‘right place’?

You're annoyed because less people see your posts in Marketplace.

Everyone else is thankful that sale posts don't wind up in Technical.

$10k, then you're well covered in case it gets lost.
Make sure you crate it well.
