    Exclamation FOR SALE RULES - Please read before posting in this forum!

    Hi Guys,

    All buyers AND sellers - OZMPS now requires you to use PayPal OR Cash on pickup for all transactions over $100 to reduce the risk of not receiving goods or if goods are not in the condition advertised.

    Please read the rules before posting a new thread here in entirety found below, the template that immediately follows MUST be used by ALL sellers.

    You must also use the following template when creating any for sale threads in this section.

    Item: (A good, clear description of the goods)
    Location: (Where the seller is located)
    Item Condition: (Tread? No tread? Scratches etc....)
    Reason for selling: (This one isn't essential.....)
    Price and price conditions: It is COMPULSORY to list a price – don’t ask for offers, this isn’t an auction house. (List how much you want and if it's negotiable, not negotiable or if you will separate items)
    Extra Info: (Postage at buyers expense? Pickup only? etc.....)
    Pictures: Pictures are COMPULSORY for EACH ITEM - the photos must be of the exact item you wish to sell in the current condition

    Whilst it may seem a drag to have to fill out the template it is going to help you with a sale as you will be providing the most asked questions up front, It will also help buyers get the information they would like to decide to buy your stuff
