Other important rules......
- Title.
- Don't use ALL CAPS or eye catching characters like !!!, * or ✪.
- Don't include a sale price in the subject line.
- Don't add "for sale" or "FS", that's what the prefixes are for.
- Don't add "UPDATED" just because you changed the price.
- Prefix. The title prefixes are FS sale, WTT trade, FS/T for sale or trade, Wanted, SOLD.
- Your FS classifieds post.
- Price. It's not an auction so include your price.
- Description. Be clear about what it is and especially regarding condition.
- Photos. Include photos and yes, even if it's in "new" condition.
- Communication. Do your best to communicate well. It's expected and appreciated. And get those tracking ID's!
- Updating your ad. Updates for something selling, or a price change, or to get your ad listed back at the top of the classifieds list.
- Edit your original ads post to note price change or "sold" next to an item as needed if your selling multiple items.
- Be sure to reply to the ad with an update. That reply will pop the ad back to the top of the list, which is listed by ads last post activity.
- Selling multiple items. If you have multiple items, list them by item on a single ad. Update the original post as items are sold or to adjust prices.
- Business usage. Yes, you are welcome to use the classifieds. Primarily it's for shops, guides, boat builders, gear or accessory manufacturers, fly tiers, low volume hobby business stuff, etc. If you have a question regarding your business usage, send the mods a message.
- With your ongoing usage, we will need to discuss sponsorship to support the site. If sponsorship isn't a good fit, then we will require a minimum $25/mo membership.
- Your items or services should be relevant.
- Identify your business in your signature.
- Payment. When trading money online for goods or services when you don't know the other person... Use PayPal.
- If you don't know the person, don't use PayPal friends and family. You lose your buyer protections. People doing this is how we've experienced issues in the past. Besides being against PP TOS, it's frowned upon.
- SOLD. If the item has sold, change the prefix to indicate SOLD or just delete the ad. If your ad has many items listed, edit the original post and add a "sold" behind items that have been.
