I would take it one step further by making non VP's pay a membership fee of say $20 after being a member of RG for 6 months if they don't upgrade to VIP.

I suggest non VIP members have to pay a $5 to $10 listing fee when they sell a watch, watch parts, and other items on RG,

I would also ban newbies for posting contents of PM's they post in a thread which they send to members when they do not like the response they get for the PM they sent to the RG member. This would send a message to the newbies who post spam and improve the overall quality of post threads.
