Hey guys, just wanted to post up a thread to friendly remind you about the rules for selling items here.
The main things that have been going on, both here and some of the sister sites is not marking stuff sold, which can be frustrating for someone who is interested in purchasing an item you listed. A very big rule is not being courteous about someone's item, by saying it is too expensive, or not worth the money. If you have nothing positive or helpful to say about an item, don't say anything. Many people have been banned over the years because this rule was broken, and things rolled down hill. Please Post pictures, a price and no outside links. That will keep the classified's section running smoothly. I am not calling anyone out, I just know that I have had to go and change threads the last few days to mark them as sold. Thanks for your cooperation!!:rockon:
The Classified rules:
Marketplace/Classified Ads Posting Rules:
YOU MUST BE A MEMBER FOR 30 DAYS AND HAVE A MINIMUN OF 10 POSTS OR BE A SUPPORTING MEMBER BEFORE YOU SELL ANYTHING ON THIS FORUM.*
This goes for trading items as well. This eliminates the spam, the "bots", and the theif. It protects everyone involved. It is a rule set by the owner, and followed strictly by the Moderators. Please follow it.
* If you are selling an FZ6R or some Used FZ6R Parts then the above does not apply as it is a benefit to the site and members to have these allowed.
Vendors (or people selling quantities of the same item) must first contact the Administration (members: Admin) to get information on being a paid advertiser before posting items for sale.
No eBay, Criagslist, or outside linking of for sale items.
If you have stuff in auction on ebay, then sell it on eBay. We will not have the items placed here also. List your product here, try to sell it here, then take it to eBay.
There will be no "auction-style" selling here.
If you post an item for sale and it says anything like "I will take the highest offer" it will be removed. If you want to run an auction, take it to eBay.
Posts will be deleted at the discretion of the moderators.
There is tendency to post negative replies when someone lists an item for sale that others consider "overpriced". Negative comments will not be tolerated. To put it simply-If you dont have anything good to say; keep it to yourself.
Omission of information is also known as fraud.
Example: If you are selling a leather suit that has a 9 inch tear in it you need to disclose that information to the buyer. Do not tell the buyer that the suit has "light wear" only.
If its determined that you defraud a member by failing to disclose crucial facts about your items, your access to this section will be restricted and you may be banned from the forum.
Use this section at your own risk.
There are alot of scams out there so take precautions in your business ventures. FZ6R-FORUM WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR LOSSES AS A RESULT OF USING THIS SECTION. As a suggestion: sellers should consider using delivery confirmation to avoid conflicts from buyers; saying they never received the products. Buyers, get to know the seller a little before you blindly send cash. If something does not seem right; it probably isn't. If something seems to good to be true; it probably is.
Respect fellow members
This section is a great place to make an extra buck and occasionally new friends. Please be respectful to your fellow members. Maybe try selling here to a member instead of eBay, maybe save them a buck or two. If you have any questions, problems or concerns feel free to contact Admin.
PLEASE try to go back and mark SOLD when the item sells.
This will help eliminate the old threads coming back up, as well as help those looking for specific items.
Lastly, don't forget the Buyer/Seller Feedback forum. Be sure to express a good or bad experience with your buyer or seller, and let others know what to expect. Also be sure to check there for a member if you are concerned BEFORE you buy.
TIPS/HELP
1. Describe your item in the title.
2. Post a price, easy to find, not just lost in the paragraph of description.
3. Give ALL details. i.e color, size, year, make, model, etc
4. POST PICTURES
5. Put "For Sale" in the title of For Sale items, put "WTB" for items you Want To Buy.
6. List shipping, pick-up or delivery options for the buyer.
7. Be sure to add "SOLD" one the items are sold
