Danny,
Not all of us want to publicly post our phone # where anyone can get it. I have a non published # and want to keep it that way. If you were interested in a piece of equipment I had for sale, and you wanted to talk to me about it, I would be happy to email my phone # to you. Then we could do business on the phone if you wished. Otherwise, I would not willingly post my phone # on any ad, there are too many nuts out there, and I'm tired of being victimized by them. I'm not being frivolous, but post your phone # on an ad and see what happens, hopefully you won't be harrassed at 3am or told you are charging too much for "your piece of crap". :(
