I have been away for a bit and missed all the posts and counter posts from India.
But it is now harder to find things for sale. Genuine items from members, either second hand or new.
The market place area has been taken over by commercial sellers, either asking for help to develop inaccurate items, or advertising their wares. I appreciate RAT may have a roll to play in helping manufacturers develop ranges, but the current situation is not one of open and honest engagement. And the open market does a great job.
I believe the section needs another re think that produces less conflict.
