Suggested Abbreviations for start of threads in Buy & Sell
Could we agree to edit the start of post titles (Edit Post "Go Advance" to change title) with:
- FS: for "FOR SALE"
- WTB: for "Want To Buy" when there is something the poster would like e.g. WTB: tickets for United v Arsenal
- SOLD: er when "SOLD" funds received
- OHPF: for "On Hold Pending Funds" for price agreed awaiting payment (just in case falls through/ need to readvertise etc)
WITHDRAWN: if not sold and poster does not wish to be contacted re the item
Description of goods:
Where condition is important please specify damage e.g. I-phone "crack on screen" etc preferably put up pics to save all time as maybe a deal breaker for some.
PRICE:
£x Offer: if open to reasonable offers around this price
£x OVNO: if open to offers very close to to this price
£x Firm: this is the price you will accept only
Posters to state preferred payment method:
- CASH: please people meet in a safe place e.g. bank if large amounts etc
- PAYPAL: please specify is expecting buyer to pay fees ~4%
- BT: Bank Transfer
- Personally payment method to avoid is "PAYPAL Gift" as this gives the buyer no rights in event sale goes wrong (bad enough with "proper" PayPal imho)
- P&P If there cost for postage & packing please specify if included or excluded in price and delivery method e.g. recorded delivery etc
@GB; are links to other advert sites acceptable e.g. EBAY, Autotrader etc etc or should the advert be within GW only?
