Exclamation ATTN: Sellers and Buyers!!!

Since a chunk of you dont read the stickies.

There has been a change in the marketplace rules.

SELLERS!

Please refer to this link!

https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/pr...uncements.html

Sellers must now include a PICTURE with USER NAME AND PRICE.

Threads with the criteria not met WELL BE DELETED without PM.

Cars for sale i will be a bit lenient on but please try to do the same.

Im tired of seeing threads constantly reported for the same thing.

NEW BUYERS!

The reason you cant post in the marketplace is because you have not met the requirements! READ THE RULES!!

Thank you for your time
GDS

Based on some of the toy forums I buy and sell on, I have these suggestions.

1. No ebay links in sales threads (keep that stuff on fleabay, people in the market place want to be able to buy stuff not look at ads)

2. You must post a price with your item (no best offer takes it, send me your best price, taking offers)

3. You must actually have the item before you sell or trade it, no pre-sales allowed.

4. Consolidate your sales, don't post each sale in a separate thread. With the exception of Private "Regional" For Sale.


I think these would be great for EvoM.

Thanks

To be honest im ok with ebay links. Some people want to sell their items there an they generate interest here. Only reason i say this is because ebay has their own verification system an feedback. The bidder can make their own educated guess on the item. As for craigslist they do not so im moving for a rule change that will prohibit craigslist ads.

Point taken, but in my personal opinion I think if someone wanted to buy parts on ebay, than they would search ebay and deal with that. For me when I check the marketplace on EvoM, I want to be able to buy the item from a seller without having to deal with bidding/another website. Just seems like a cheesy way to promote your auctions to me, at least maybe have an EBAY header in the title of the thread.
