Hi all

After a few recent events, I have decided to change the trading rules on the site.

We are now placing the onus on members to adequately cover themselves in a trade. This means taking responsibility for your trades and ensuring you buy, sell and trade in a safe manner at all times.

The rules have now been renamed to site guidelines, and are still exactly the same. They are guidelines on how to buy sell and trade safely on the site. If you follow the guidelines, you will mostly have no issues.

What this means is that all trades are up to YOU. We will take action on members that do the wrong thing, but we will not become involved in any trade problems.


In line with this, we have decided to remove the requirement for "no PayPal gift" as quite frankly noone was adhering to it anyways. It is now listed as a recommendation only for safe trading. Feel free to ask for PayPal gift, but as per normal members have the right to refuse to send via this method to cover themselves.

Please let me know if you have any comments or suggestions re these changes.

hi so its still ok to do gift payments between members you have dealt with in the past with no hassles.i have sent and recieved gift payments with only 1 parcel go missing and that member was good enough to replace missing cards .
 
hi thanks for clearing it up might piss a few off but guess have to go with the herd except for select few
 
Graham,

Since they are guidelines now and not rules, does that remove the requirement for members to not send cards in white envelopes? I mean in the rules, if a member sent their cards in envelopes they would get a neg but now they are only guidelines this may not be possible anymore.
 
Bumping this up as a reminder for everyone.


The feedback you can leave for members is your way of notifying others of a deal gone bad. Please use it. We will remove any retaliatory feedback.
