For sale threads.....
I'm sure this must have been discussed before, but it seems that the buzz-phrase for 2009 is "This isn't a for sale thread, but what is this worth?....."
That is obviously just a sly ad and it now seems that it's a loophole in the system and everyone is having a go??
Did I miss something?

Sales topics must be in the most suitable allocated sales forum and will not be tolerated in any other part of the forum.

A lot of people try to get round the rule above by posting a topic called "What’s it worth?" under the pretence that they are just wondering how much to sell it for. Due to the fact that such a member would receive many private messages about such an item for sale, we only allow this to happen in the Items for sale forums, which are of course plus members only areas. This rule only applies if the user does in fact have one of these items that they may want to sell.

Same as " i dont know what its worth so make me an offer " does my fucking head in as they know damm well what they want for it so why not just bloody say .
If they dont know what its worth why then do they tell you to fook off when you offer them a low price , lol, if they dont know what its worth / what they want how can they say no to any offer

Taken from the rules:
General buying / selling rules:
Private individuals registered as gold members may offer suitable items for sale in the correct parts for sale forums.
All topics must give a clear description of the goods and a price. Listing items with no price is not good enough. If you are not sure of a price, visit eBay to get an idea
Doesnt mention thread deletion though. Will use common sense for the time being, make sure you use the report post funtion or PM a mod to make them aware if it happens
