New Sales and Classifieds Rules

[Lump]

yes i did, so ill have a word

stupid one I know but got a quick question:

All prices must include postage if im correct, now can we specify type of postage or are we having a standard postage across the board? (Just so I know before I sort prices out)

How about a "1 item per thread" rule (like eBay) unless it's a "full-setup" type one, of course? It's a pain when the thread title just says "lots of stuff" (for example) which means you have to trawl through all the crap to find something you *may* be interested in.

Also, a rule to make sure people update their first post and title with any changes - again, meaning that you don't have to trawl through crap to find a price drop or sold items!

Just a thought .

After re reading this thread, and not getting at any one person in particular, it feels like a lot of you don't appreciate that this is a free resource, and like anything else, no one really appreciates something till it is taken from them.

You guys make buying and selling difficult for yourselves. Common sense i know is lacking on here, but at the end of the day if you aren't sure about buying or selling something over the internet, then wait for it.................................
























simply don't do it.

But imagine clarkieboys big sale thread,that would turn into about 130 seperate forsale threads,a bit more wading through the crap for everyone then.He would have the 1st 5 pages of the classifieds to himself.

silly idea, each time i did a set of sales there would be two or three pages of just my threads, not to mention trying to monitor all of them would be a nightmare.

OK OK - calm down peeps. Like I said "just a thought". Sheesh - it's tiring playing this Devil's Advocate role all the time .

EDIT : But what about the second idea though?

Only mods can change thread titles after a certain period of time.

Really? But I've seen plenty on here like "SOLD - PLEASE DELETE" etc. Are you sure it's not just restricted to Plats?

i think you can self edit after a few hours then that option closes
