RJ seems to have sold out to the dealers and scammers!
 

Anyone else tired of all of the dealers and scammer ads listed here on RJ? It use to be a good site to check out cars and buy/sell personal streetrods and classics, but anymore it's just page after page of high priced dealers and wacked out scammers ads!!!
I'm really getting tired of listing one of my streetrods and having it buried under all the dealers ads! I myself, never look at ANY of the dealers ads. The problem is, is that I scroll so fast past the dealers and scammers ad's, I miss some of the regular ads!
I've been a paying honor member on this site, selling rods on here for almost 12 years now, and have done pretty good up until this past year, when RJ seems to have sold out and don't watch for obvious scammers, and have the high priced dealers overtake the site. I guess it's all about the money! It's sad, because it used to be about the members!
My yearly membership is due in April, might have to think twice about re-newing. I just might be looking for a new home!

Yes, at least limit them on how many listing per week.(10 maybe).... scrolling past 50-100 at a time makes it hard to even bother coming on here...... this isn't the site for dealers like Gateway and other dealers listing 50-100 cars at once. One reason I stopped looking at some other sites.

I agree that dealer ads are irritating if they abuse it. I buy used carburetors on RJ and elsewere and resell them after rebuilding and making them look better, just as a hobby. I have yet to find a better place to buy and sell for drag racing items. If you guys find that "new home" site let me know where it is.

I have been successful with car parts etc. Cars not too well. I have been part of this forum for awhile and it has changed. I do get frustrated when you see pages of scooters or mini bikes, and then pages of trailers, then I realize I bought two trailers and a pit vehicle, neither on junk but from the internet,so I realize we do need that stuff :) so like Mark above says ...If you find "that new home" site let me know too !

Why can't RJ create a new category for dealers only.
Seems to be the best way to avoid all of the over priced cars on the site.

I got fucked today $1200 for a new 871 blower race junk said its a buyer beware site fuck race junk! Seller richard V Harrisburg Va.
Item number 182699879

With all of the dealers and non-paying members, I will not be renewing my membership...at least put the dealers in an area of their own, and with paying members, make them pay with PayPal. Less likely a scammer then.

RacingJunk.com Members,

Please know that we have heard your concerns about the influx of dealer inventory in a select few categories. As exciting as it was to bring in so many new ads for our members this weekend it did come with a couple of bumps along the way.

That being said, we want to assure you that we are currently working on a couple different solutions, the first of which is currently being implemented to help spread the dealer ads throughout the classifieds instead of loading them all together at the top of the listings. We also have some exciting work being done to implement a user friendly sorting tool that will allow you to choose which type of ad you would like to view (private vs dealer).

We are always looking to improve RacingJunk and thank you for being patient and loyal RacingJunk.com members. If you ever have any questions or concerns about the site, feel free to email us or give us a call.

Thanks,
Team RacingJunk.com

Great news!

The new user friendly sorting tool is up and running on RacingJunk. You can now choose to only look at private or dealers ads. We have them separated by a new tab system which lets you quickly jump from one group to the other. If you have any questions or concerns feel free to give us a call.

As always, thanks for the feedback!

What the hell have u done to the site??
Return it back too the old...you.ve ruined a good site

Then you insult me with junior member stat ...Ya well i've been here for many years .....

What happened to the summary page? The old format was much better then this format. You have ruined this site with this format. This site has really gone down hill. Please change it back to the old format!!!!

You have the new tabs, but they disappear if you look for a certain vehicle.
Have the tabs there at all times. Now when you look up a car, say a 69 Camaro.
You have 10 pages of everything but the 69 Camaro. I believe my daughter can
give you guys a few tips on how to set up a web site. Make it easy, get rid of the
the crew from O'Fallon, the douche from Maryville and the site should be good.

Who is the douche from Maryville?

I believe he is referring to smokey mountain traders as being the douche?

OOOOhhhhhhh...now I understand

Your Jr member status is based off the number of posts you have made, you show only 1...

Tired of all the dealer adds taking up 15 pages of the same crap been a member here a long time thinking of not being one anymore. Bought an sold a lot of items and met good people but it seems like an advertising scheme now.

At least RJ now has a Private Member icon you can select to eliminate having to look at the dealer ads.

I would prefer to have the old messaging system back through the site instead of replying through personal emails. It was a secure message system, and your info & email stayed secured until you needed it to be brought out. I guess it eliminates one for having to login in and see there messages and find 10 out of 12 is from RJ itself selling tee shirts and lawn chairs.
i've been here since 04 and still a junior member, Guess i found the fountain of youth!

I liked the system way better myself.

Also I keep getting Jegs and Summit emails now that I never got with the other system. I keep trying to uninstall them, but they are right back. They never have anything cheaper then where I get my parts, so why do I have to look at those unwanted emails?
