we (the admins/moderator) have decided to improve the Trading Area of the forums. Currently the trading ethic has been very good, with very few cases of dispute and many happy traders. However, recently we have seen a slight deviation from high standards experienced previously due to the lack experience that some of the newer members have. To counter this, we will be enforcing a new system of access to the trading forums.GENERAL RULES:1. Selling item, may it be sold or not will be deleted one month after posting
2. TACP does not in any way is connected with any seller, buyer's discretion is recommended
SELLERS:
We're happy to provide this service at no cost to members but expect all participants to bear in mind the TACP Forum rules and disclaimer the same as any other TACP event
Please avoid 'Expressions of Interest' posts. You're either selling, or you're not - an EoI post needs to have some significant reason behind it to be acceptable. Think carefully before posting.
Sellers should make clear in their posts:
* What they're selling - make/model/variant
* What their price expectation is
* How to contact them. PM/Email/Phone or whatever.
* Pictures (if you don’t have pictures and cannot get any please state as such pls. put "NO PIX AVIALABLE"). If you think you can get pictures soon, please hold off posting the thread until you get the pictures, we want to avoid the posts where the first 5 replies are people asking about pictures.
Sellers should also set the forum to notify them as people respond to their thread. This requires you to have a valid email address in your TACP forum profile.
BUYERS/READERS & MEMBERS: Show some respect for the people posting, as you may wish that respect to be reciprocated when YOU sell something.
Don't spam peoples threads. Genuine inquiries or expressions of interest are OK - but anything else - DON'T POST!
Don't make abusive comments about someones expectations. If you think someone is asking too much, say so - in a respectful fashion. You're entitled to your opinion - so are they - you don't need to agree. If its too expensive, none will make an offer...
NO UNNECESSARY POSTING PLS. (your post will be deleted automatically)
Sold For Sale Posts When your item/s have been sold please update the thread with a SOLD and (optional) pm the moderator. so that it can be locked .
"if u are buying/looking for something, make your own thread/topic. PLS. PLS. DONT HIJACK OTHER PEOPLE THREAD/TOPIC."
If you notice a thread on here going awry, or someone breaking these guidelines, PM a Moderator. We'll take care of it.
These rules are dynamic and subject to change, as the Mods identify things that should be clarified. Thanks for your time and understanding.
