Another Question about where to post stuff.

So I asked a rather obvious question last time, but this time it may not be so obvious.

I was wondering if under the "Collectibles For Sale/Wanted" board would be a good place to post TY Beanie Babies?

I ask because I know the TY BB's are collectible to some, but really because I want to know if they are acceptable to post on this site.

Thanks.

Good day,

The Collectibles For Sale / Wanted would be the correct forum for the TY Beanie Babies.

It is mostly a gaming trade site but we have had all sorts of stuff traded.

I personally traded for an I-Pod Touch, Zucchini Bread was part of a trade I did.

A few years ago we had a user trying to trade a Car for Space Marines.

As long as it isn't listed on the unacceptable list and the staff doesn't feel that it is inappropriate you can trade anything.

Rule #9 - Trade Items:
Rule #9: Concerning 'acceptable' trade goods people have asked about:
Nothing that violates the law in the United States. That includes copyright law, federal law, state law, local law...get the idea?
No weapons of any kind. This is not a political statement, this is a rule of the website as decided by Trademaster Adam and myself.
NO FIREARMS OR WEAPONS.
Anyone who posts an ad asking for firearms or other weapons in trade for anything will be immediately and permanently banned.
Unacceptable Trade Goods People Have Asked About: (and yes, people have asked!)
• Guns; Any weapon that fires projectiles with the intent to maim or pierce the skin and cause bodily harm or kill.,
• Rifles,
• Shotguns,
• Automatic or semi-automatic Firearms,
• cans of spam,
• bows,
• arrows,
• crossbows,
• Firearm or archery accessories are NOT acceptable.That means no magazines (what holds the bullets), clips, parts, shells, reloading equipment, gunpowder, ammunition, sights, or anything else I deem related to such.
• shuriken,
• shaken,
• Animals or animal parts are NOT acceptable trade materials. We're just not going to go there. For that matter, human beings or any of their constituent parts aren't acceptable trade materials either.
• sharpened spoons,
• blades of any length or type, (regardless of their condition, display status, etc.)
• polearms,
• explosives,
• combustibles - though cans of spray paint and primer are acceptable,
• blunt-force instruments (batons, nightsticks, tonfa, escrima, etc) or boots-to-the-head. That includes practice weapons like SCA and Olympic fencing gear, dulled aluminum samurai swords, tree branches, darts, plastic kitchenware and cooking pans.

Also - note that all display weapons, even if permanently or semi-permanently attached to their display stand, are still considered weapons.

If you think something MIGHT be a Weapon, Ask a Staff Member FIRST before posting!

Acceptable Trade Goods People Have Asked About:
• Paintball markers/guns and accessories/equipment
• Airsoft markers/guns and accessories/equipment
• "Boffer" style weapons made of PVC pipe and foam padding are acceptable. If you have questions whether or not your item qualifies as "boffer" then contact me before you post. I will clarify.
I hope that helps.

We do appreciate you asking before posting your ads in the wrong places.

Thank you,
