Rules & Considerations
Please do not make posts that are not regarding the sale, stuff like "I would buy that, but I dont have any money" and "if only you were nearer". Please also do not disrupt sales with unwanted or negative opinions with stuff like "thats nice, but it seems a bit expensive to me" and "I thought I saw one cheaper over there". Posts like this may be removed.
Please ensure you use thread prefixes to help others who are using the classifieds. For searchers: check the display options at the bottom of any classified forum to filter the prefixes by area.
Rules:
* We do not allow any sort of competitions/raffles that give away a live animal as a prize.
* We do not allow classified ads for weapons, or anything else that could be used as a weapon.
* We do not allow copied games or any other copyright items to be sold.
* If you bump your thread excessively it will be locked, not more than once in 24 hours.
* Do not spam the classifieds, only one ad per item please.
* If you prove to be a consistantly bad seller you will be banned from the classifieds.
* If you are found to be selling for a member who has received a classified ban, you will receive one yourself. (this may or may not be reviewed at a later time)
* If your advert is offering a swap, it must go in the relevant forum for what is being offered.
Your Ad Format
Please consider the format of your post to make life easier for people searching the classifieds.
* Use the thread prefix to display your location.
* If collection only, add this with your town in the title.
* List the price or conditions of the sale and any other costs involved.
* Confirm delivery/collection options to the buyer.
* Add a picture where ever possible, people WILL ask.
Tips For Safe Trading
We do not accept responsibility for any adverts or transactions on these forums. We will do our best to remove any known scammers and monitor adverts daily. These tips are intended to help transactions go smoothly, but are not a guarentee against scammers or timewasters.
* Check the buyers/sellers I-Trader rating before making a transaction.
* Always try get a landline telephone number and address of a seller.
* Always pay by Paypal if possible. Avoid sending cash through the post.
* Do NOT send payment as 'gift' through Paypal, you will not be able to claim if things go wrong.
* Ask for photos of what you are buying to prove condition of item, ask lots of question before commiting to a purchase.
* If meeting people alone, try to meet in a public place and make sure people know where you are going.
* If requesting postage by courier confirm which courier the seller is using. Sending of live animals by Royal Mail is illegal and unethical.
* Do not be offended if a seller requests a deposit. No one likes having their timewasted and a deposit can help stop this.
