Hello,

You may post your items in the appropriate selling threads once every 7 days.

For example, if you have an army of Space Wolves that you would like to sell, just start a new topic in the "Warhammer 40k For Sale / Wanted" thread. Here is a link to it.
viewforum.php?f=8
And if you have LoTR just post in the LoTR thread... FB in the FB thread.... ect.

It is also a good idea to include a list of your models, what you would like in return for them.. (Cash, any trades...) and make sure you put the condition of the models to. That just helps make everyone happy. :wink:

Hope this helped.

Thanks!

Chris

Look at the other ads. Be as descriptive as possible. If it's new in box, write NIB. New on sprue, which means all of the bits and pieces are still on the sprue, it's NoS.

If it's built, or primered or painted; say so. pictures are worth a 100 words. photobucket is free to upload pics. You can then either post links to the pics, or images of them, from the site.

Understand, you're a new seller. Almost everyone here will want you to ship 1st.
Read all the rules about posting, shipping and selling.

Also understand, selling minis and not shipping them, or not sending what you said, or not as described [saying NIB and sending painted built models] is Mail Fraud. It's a felony, reported to the USPS Postal Inspectors.

Making sure theminis arrive unbroken is your responsiblity if your the sender.
Use delivery confirmation for tracking when an item gets delivered. Use insurance, if something happens and you don't want to lose the money for the item if it's lost of damaged. It usually runs about $2.50 for $100.
Heh, I was called a Grognard. ;-)

Oh.. and put your location into your profile in your User Control Panel too!
2+2=5 for sufficiently large values of 2.

If you don't have your Location listed in your User Control Panel, why not take a second and update it? It will let your trading partners know where you are from the beginning.

I use the Unofficial Porkuslime Trading Guidelines - if you have way less refs.. you ship first.

Folks I am awaiting a ref from.. Zack
