Title: ideas for buying and selling posting.
Post by pekaboo on 11/26/09 at 10:21pm

Does it look ok to have one For Sale/looking to buy category together or can you do 2 sub categories into one big category? That way everything for sale is listed under each other in a category, and everything people want to buy is listed into a separate category.

Is it feasible for somebody to show a picture of what they are selling online on the site, or should the person wanting to buy it contact the person selling it privately through e-mail, and ask for pics that way? I didn't know if pics would make to forum run slow or look to cluttery. If its ok to put pics on the forum, would there be a limit to the amount or on the size of the pics?

If we can trust everybody, I think what people are trying to buy and sell should be put up as soon as somebody types it. However, if there is a problem and the adminstrator needs to see it before it goes up, that is understandable as well.

I think everybody is smart enough to know what should be bought or sold, but just incase anybody needs a reminder the following are probably things that should not be sold through this site:

;D
naughty magazines
non-domesticated animals
fire arms
non-cooking knives, and any other thing thats main intent is to be used as a weapon.
drugs of any type
body soliciting
family members/ signifigant others
personal information about you or somebody else
items that were you know were stolen, whether you did it or not.
secrets
aliens
answers to a test

Just be wise and use common sense about selling something to somebody that might be too young to buy it. esp if its dangerous; and if you feel that its necessary to contact an adult they would know to wo approve or dissaprove the transaction.

If however you are inclined to sell some of the above items to somebody in the Bluff Park Area , heaven forbid, please find another way to do the transaction.

Also, don't forget to edit your post and take it off if the item you are selling is bought or if the item you want to buy is something you got. If there is no way to edit a post that is already listed, then just make a new post letting everybody know what is up with the item you are selling or trying to buy. This would also be if you needed to make price chnages.

I don't know if there should be rules about forms of payment that should be used, or if that should be discussed privately trhough the buyer and seller. let mer know waht ya'll think
