Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
Some of my threads will get 40-50 views in a day with no responses- that's ok with me. I do agree that the $20 something a year is well worth the paid membership. I also give priority for anything I sell/trade or give away to paid members. I've met a bunch of members- shared stories, got a bunch of free stuff- gave a bunch away too, made some great trades-I think for both of us, best part is that I've made a few friends along the journey too
