I hate to think I am the only knucklehead that has a hard time finding the listing or the seller from the AR15 EE.

It can't be that hard to find someone.
I have his email address but there has to be a way, to simply search on the item ( failed) search on his email ( failed) or god knows what ?

Does anyone else go through this?

Post an "I'll take it" in the thread to subscribe, easy to find in your subscriptions folder later.

The alternative is to search for key words in the post using the search function. Make sure when searching an item you have the time period set to 30 days and not 24 hours.

Phil: You've already illiterated these same points in a similar post that was loud and clear to me. I get it-thank you. I followed your link here to present it to the suggestion box so perhaps the developers may choose to revisit this some day. The search function takes some getting use to at least for me. Thanks for the tips.
