Can't PM to transact

p.4 #1 · Can't PM to transact


I didn't know about the minimum posting requirement until I just tried to PM someone about a lens. I guess I'll need to purchase the 'Upload and Sell.' Oh well, live and learn.

So if one purchases the "Upload and Sell" then they no longer have to adhere to the 25 post minimum?

Just came across this thread after running into this issue as well -- good to know that the threshold is 25 posts. I really wish that limit was more clearly communicated in the error message when trying to send a PM.


Yeah, I agree. In general I'm a lurker so it would be nice to have known.

Yeah, me too. I could at least respond to a PM someone sent about 2 weeks ago, but as of today, I can't respond to the PM I got.


For sure, if someone is willing to initiate a DM with me, I'd really want to be able to respond.

In the same boat, hoping this counts as one of the 25!

I'm glad I found this post. I was wondering why I wasn't able to PM someone about buying gear.

Another +1 to this, unless the end goal was to have new users organically figure out search and navigate the whole forum! I feel like this error message can be added on the same page as the "Quick Reply", "Reply", or DM composer with red warning text, so that you don't have to use the browser's back button and potentially have your comment or message cleared out.
