Important changes to For Sale / Classfieds - effective Monday, Sep 12th, 2005!
There are new requirements and guidelines that have been introduced, which come into life on Monday, Sep 12th 2005. Full and updated text can be found in Classifieds Rules & Guidelines. Below you can find outlined new changes that have been made:
1. Heatware account is now very strongly recommended by XtremeSystems Forums Staff.
This now becomes a very strong suggestion that's being made not only for the Seller but a Buyer, too. If one doesn't have an active Heatware account, please sign-up here before starting a new thread or making an offer to the Seller. If there's no trading history on that account yet, Ebay feedback is another option. It's up to the Seller to verify Buyer's credentials before closing a transaction.
2. Only The Seller is allowed to create posts in For Sale sections.
Ability to create posts in For Sale threads has been limited to the Seller only. Other members, including potential buyers are no longer able to post in For Sale threads. This means that any offers, price and shipping negotiations or other inquiries by interested parties are to be made through PM or e-mail only! If the Seller has been asked a question about features that have not covered in his initial post, he may update his thread with another post containing this new information.
3. The Seller is allowed to bump his own thread if neccesary.
We allow the Seller to bump his own thread in a reasonable manner. Bumping every 1 hour or so is absolutely not allowed! Common practice would be once in 6-8 hours at the most.
4. The Seller is obligated to inform potential buyers in case item is not available anymore.
This is to be done by creating a "closing post", whether item is sold or otherwise unavailable anymore.
5. Threads that have not been updated for more that 7 days will be removed.
It's in Seller's own interest to check up on his PMs and update his thread accordingly. If for any reason, the Seller's last post in his thread is older than 7 days, it will be assumed that transaction is closed and thread will be automatically removed.
