Some people start their listing with "WTD" and I'm wondering if anyone can explain why?

Thanks in advance.

Stands for Wanted. An alternative to Want To Buy.

WANTED

As in Wanted to Buy

WDT is not used very often.
WTB is far more common.

Hi Thayne,

I see WTB is the more common in the US but in Europe (I am Irish) WTD is more common.

Cheers,

I'm still waiting for an ad where they accidently type 'WTF'. :)

Because they didn't read the Gear Swap Policies for creating/naming threads.

It was want to donate. I haven't been reading those posts.

When I first saw it, I thought it meant "Want to Demo".

Whew! I didn't read the post because I thought it was someone berating me.

What the......? Doug!
