Private Sales / Wants & Ebay Auction Alerts
Private Sales / ClassifiedListings
The rules are simple and straight forward. They are in place to keep things simple and to ensure buyers receive reasonable information regarding things available.
1. This forum gives the facility for members to offer garden railway related items for sale and also the facility for members to accept those offers and for them to communicate with each other. That is the absolute limit of this forums involvement. No liability can be accepted by this Forum, its owners, operators or moderators.
2. You must list multiple items as separate listings unless you are selling as a complete lot.
3. The thread title should relate to the item being sold ("Item for sale" is not acceptable).
4. The price must be stated. This is not an auction - please don't ask for 'offers'. (Keeps everything simple this way).
5. A picture of the actual article must be displayed. No catalogue or library pictures please. (If you have problems posting a picture contact a moderator). Ensure you have your pictures ready before starting a sales thread.
6. A good description of the item(s) for sale indicating any faults/problems if applicable and general condition.
7. Some indication of the method of delivery should be given. Ideally a price for postal service or 'collect'.
8. Not for trade use. Also, you are limited to 10 items at once for sale unless agreed otherwise with the Mods (like your selling a collection with good reason.)
9. The owners, operators and moderators may amend or delete posts, offers and acceptances at anytime without notice.
10. It is upto the seller to ensure that the listing is correct, and also to mark the item as sold when it gets sold.
