The For Sale Forum is for the use of participating forum members, ie members who have already posted elsewhere on the forum. If you are new to the forum and want to advertise something for sale, please make sure to at least introduce yourself elsewhere on the forum as a matter of courtesy. The New Members Introduction forum is a good place for this. Important; Dealers and vendors please note that this is a non-commercial resource, advertising commercially here without Admin consent is not allowed. Please remember that posting items for sale here is reserved for forum members who already participate on the forum. Anyone abusing this privilege will be banned without notification. When posting adverts, please remember to put your location (country) in the advert, unless you already have this in your profile. It's not essential to put any private information like telephone numbers in the advert, although you can of course do this if you want to. Anyone interested in the item for sale can send you a PM and you can pass on any information that way if you prefer. Do not put your e-mail address in your advert (we will edit it out if we see it), otherwise scammers from Nigeria and other places will probably try to con you out of your hard earned cash. Not only that, but bots trawling the web for fresh e-mail addresses will pick it up very quickly. Don't complain to me if you post your e-mail address in an advert and are contacted by scammers or spammers, you've been warned. Examples of scam e-mails can be found on this page http://www.goldwingfacts.com/scamemails.htm When you sell or buy the item, please send a PM to either the moderator (wexy) or myself (wingnut) with the name and date of your advert so that we can delete it and free up space. We will probably prune older adverts every couple of months or when we remember to do it. Please post prices for items in US Dollars, Euro or UK Sterling. If you are linking to an item for sale on places like Craigslist and EBay etc. that you are not selling yourself, we will lock the thread so it is read-only. This is so that forum members items for sale won't get lost down the page while the Craigslist and EBay posts stay at the top. No bumping of adverts allowed. Don't bump-post your advert to the top of the page, it's not fair to the other members to be bumping your advert back up. If we see an advert being bumped, we will delete the advert altogether. The For Sale forum is provided as a free facility and as such the forum Admins have no interest in the transactions other than that the rules are observed. Any issues with items bought or sold here should be discussed privately by PM or e-mail between buyer and seller and not aired in public on the forum. If you are looking for an item, please put Wanted; (followed by the item you want) in the subject line of the post. Example; Wanted; GL1500 front wheel. -------------------- Adding pictures with your advertisement. You can post one picture of an item for sale with your advert. Instructions for posting pictures (taken from the FAQ section) are as follows; Use the "insert image" button on the text editor to link to an image on another site. When you click the button you will see a pop-up box to insert the URL of the image into. To get the URL of an image on a web site, just right click on it (Internet Explorer, I'm not sure how it's done in other browsers) and then click properties. In the Address (URL) line just copy the URL before composing your message here and paste it into the pop-up box that you will see when you click the "insert image" button. The "insert image" button looks like this; You can post several pictures (up to the allocated space available to you) in the Gallery and place a link to them in your advert. -------------------- We have a zero tolerance policy for spam. No spam is allowed here and we don't want the loyal forum members being subjected to it. We sometimes allow some commercial adverts by members in good standing here if we think it is to the benefit of our forum members, but you will need to ask an Admin for permission first.
