Question Sponsored Vendors..??

OK I've done a search and can't find a list of active Vendors on the forum unless I over looked it.

So is there a list of Sponsored Vendors some place on FT86CLUB.com so I can buy parts from the forums vendors vs other websites..??

I know a member can look in the Sponsored Vendor threads to find companies but member shouldn't have to do this to find the forums Vendors.

Thanks for any feedback.

Do you not mean the entire Commercial Classifieds sub-forum, or am I misunderstanding the question?

I think anyone can find the commercial sales sub forum.

Here: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=34


I'm asking if there's a thread with all of the forum's Sponsored Vendors listed on it.

You know like this active Vendors list.

1-Carson Toyota

2-FT-86 SpeedFactory

3-Evasive Motorsports

So you want a list of all Sponsored Vendors with currently active accounts? Like, the ones bumping their threads in the classifieds?

I tend to agree with @TRD-X . I've bought (and continue to buy) numerous items. I searched everywhere for just a list of vendors I could contact. What I ended up with instead, was having to scour the Commercial Classifieds section to figure out who was a vendor. Other forums I belong to, simply have a list.

I see nothing wrong with the commercial classified section, in fact I think it's a great thing. But, a simple vendor list is extremely helpful.

You shouldn't have to spend hours trying to determine who all of our vendors are. Look at these forums, to get an idea of what I'm talking about (and maybe what @TRD-X is referring to):

Yeah TemeCal all the forums I'm on have a list of Supporting Vendors.

The forum is suppose to be user friendly for the new members.

Really the Vendors pay out money to be on forums so why not have a simple list of active Vendors here..??

I liked the vendor list from the Legacy forums. I'd rather not sift through 100 threads like Dimman is suggesting. Since this website is taking money from these companies, it shouldn't be a big deal to give them a simple page.

All the ones you guys have referenced are only 17~21 vendors. Have you ever counted how many vendors we have?

I don't want to go through pages and pages to get to vendor section classified and go through pages and pages of items. Is that what you call "new member friendly"? If that's the case, I'll retire

We'll come up with a good way of presenting a sponsors list, thanks for the suggestion.
