Just to clear up, I've read quite a number of comments about dibs. Dibs does NOT exist here. It is not mentioned in the rules.
The off topic section not increasing the post count, also rubbish. The green room doesn't.
Here are the rules:
* A photograph with your user name and the item(s) must be posted at the time of placing the advert
* An asking price (and postage costs if applicable) should be included in the first post
* Once an offer has been accepted the seller should update the post
* All transactions should be completed swiftly and any delays should be agreed prior to completing
* The seller has the right to withdraw or refuse sale before the transaction is complete
Failure to adhere to these rules will result in the for sale advert being removed.
Above all, we expect any sales to be carried out in the manner that you would wish to be dealt with. Please bear this in mind during any transactions.
As far as I'm concerned, no pics, no name, no ad!
We've tried to be patient in easing people into these rules but I think enough is enough.
Oh and while we're at it it's 50 posts for a Zed for sale.
And relax.
Our rules rely on the maturity and moral decency of members both buying and selling.
Just another thing to note, if you see people breaking the rules PLEASE report it, after all that stuff with this particular member only one of his posts had been reported - Thank you Husky, it's appreciated! Leaving arsey comments on all his threads isn't constructive and doesn't help the mods sort this out.
Instead of moaning when it goes wrong PLEASE report the posts as soon as you see them and the mods will remove them as soon as possible.
Thanks folks, your help is appreciated.
