370z Parts for Sale

DaveZ03 · 02-05-2020, 10:18 AM

So I know that the original rules (Classified Rules:) were made in 2008, with an amendment being made in 2011, but do you guys think this may need to be revisited? Judging by a few recent examples, not gonna specify but they can be easily found, I think the initial rules may be outdated for the Parts for Sale (Private Classifieds). I mean if I have to follow your instagram to see pictures of your items you are wanting to sale here, I'll just pass. Alternatively if I'm the seller and am able to post a For Sale thread on here without posting pictures or price initially, although following the outlined rules above, what is my benefit by going above and beyond (although it makes sense to post pictures and prices for items you wish to sale). Just my thoughts on the matter as I wasn't able to find any other thread where this had been discussed.

Here's a good tutorial

Thanks for the reply, although just to be clear, I was questioning whether or not the classified rules should be updated. Not how to post pictures.

AK made the decision a long time ago not to require pictures in parts FS threads. It's not gonna change now. Most sellers will share their cell phone number if they can't figure out how to post pics.

Frankly, it's not hard to post pics. The only issue with the forum picture hosting is you have to resize the photos to meet the max size limit for JPGs or whatever extension you are uploading. Unfortunately, this new generation just wants shìt spoon-fed to them and aren't interested in trying to figure out things for themselves.

If you have a problem with having to follow someone's IG to see pics, then don't buy the part. Simple as that.
If you're the seller, going above and beyond give buyers more faith and likely increases the chances to make the sale.

Thanks JAR. Mods delete, lock, whatever this thread if you see fit.

That wasn't actually meant for you. It was for anyone directing potential buyers to their Instagram page.
