DISCLAIMER
versa tiida owners forum does not take any responsibility for transactions gone awry. It is the job of each individual to protect himself/herself from fraud.
By posting within this section, you agree to these terms.
POSTING RULES
If any of the following rules are not met, your thread will be closed (not deleted), and you will be given the appropriate warning. With the warning, we will state what rule you have violated. It is then your responsibility to contact us with missing info as it is needed. If your post was closed for a reason aside from missing info, a moderator will contact you, and let you know what needs to happen for it to be re-opened.
Rule #1: You must include the location of the item you are selling either by declaring it in the post. It needs to be in the front, and using brackets [ ]
--Residents of the United States: Please use the proper two letter state abbreviation in brackets before your title.
For example, if you are trying to sell a set of wheels, and you live in the State of California It should look like this; [CA] enkie wheels.
--Residents of Canada: Please use your territories’ or provinces proper abbreviation, followed by CAN in brackets.
Same example as above, but you live in Alberta Canada; [AB-CAN] enkie wheels..
--Members Linking to EBay Auctions/Sales: Please use the location of the craigslist ad. If the ad is in Dallas, Tx, then you would still put [TX] in the front of the title. If you want to include "Ebay" in that, go right ahead.
--Members Linking to Craigslist/Other sites: Please use the location of the craigslist ad. If the ad is in Dallas, Tx, then you would still put [TX] in the front of the title. If you want to include "C-list" in that, go right ahead.
*A special Note: Posts derived from EBay & Craigslist are exempt from rule #2.
Rule #2: You must include a price for the item and declare the currency you wish to be paid in. Some considerations are as follows.
-It is the right of all registered users on this forum to comment about pricing posted in a "for sale" thread. This would include suggestions and even criticism.
-It is also the right of the original poster to comment further on said comments, and in the case of criticism, to defend their prices, or ask why the critic(s) feel the way he or she does.
-Lastly, It can be considered acceptable for debate to take place about the value of items for sale, in dispute or support of the originally posted prices. It is acceptable for prices to be amended by the original poster if they decide to do so.
-However, it is NOT in any way acceptable to insinuate that the original poster is "ripping" people off with their prices, or that they are in any way trying to take advantage of people. You can criticize the prices all you want, but it must be done CIVILLY, and with the expectation that the original poster can (and likely will) respond.
-It is NOT acceptable for the original poster to react in hostility due to criticisms of price that may diminish the value of items for sale. If they feel they are being harassed, they must bring it up LEGITIMATELY to the moderator team.
-It is NOT acceptable for anyone involved in the discussion of prices to intentionally do something to provoke or otherwise attack someone personally. Moving forward from this post, such activity will result in deletion of posts and issuances of warnings on the spot. It is recommended that if you disagree with said pricing, that you talk privately with the selling member via private message, so as not to mislead other potential buyers.
-If at any time the original poster wishes, the thread can be locked or deleted entirely, at the request of the original poster. This would be an official request via the report process. MODERATORS ARE ALSO REQUIRED TO DO THIS if a moderator is the original poster.
A word to the wise: selling things on a forum means you are selling things to the scrutiny of the users, some of who are fair, and some who may not be, or who may not reasonably understand your reasons for pricing and conditions. The comments users make in for sale threads, so long as they are CIVIL, are valid, and the seller must be prepared for the possibility that someone's comments may affect the sale of their items as desired. I feel this more than adequately covers the issue, as well as sets the record straight about what is tolerated, what is not, and what the realistic expectations are for selling items on this forum (or pretty much any forum for that matter).
Rule #3: If a price is listed with "or best offer" (or "OBO" for short), best offers must be submitted PRIVATELY, via e-mail, PM, IM, or whatever. They CAN NOT be posted publicly on the thread. It is acceptable to post "PM sent" or "offer sent" or whatever, so long as no numbers are posted publicly.
Rule #4: You must include details about the shipping arrangements. So, if shipping is extra you must declare that. If you are not willing to ship and the ad is for pickup only, you must declare that as well.
Rule #5: While we do not require that you post a picture of your item(s), it is highly recommended that you do so. If you cannot provide a picture but want to use one from another source on the net, you must declare that the item pictured is not your own, but is similar and you must give credit to whom the photo was originally taken.
Further, if the actual item differs in anyway from the representative picture, you must state what is different.
Rule #6: Do not post auction style for sale ads here. This forum is not made for that format of selling. If you wish to sell your item in that format you are more then welcome to post a link to your EBay posting on this forum.
