Buying, Selling and Trading Items
Hello and welcome to the Retro Game Boards Buy/Sell/Trade Board. This board will be used as a cork board for users to post items they’re looking to exchange with other posters.
IMPORTANT: This board will primarily be user-moderated, and www.RetroGameBoards.com as well as its staff and owners in no way take responsibility for any transaction that occurs between users. This means that if a user doesn’t uphold their end of the bargain, there’s nothing anyone here can do about it besides banning their account. We’re working on an honor and user-submitted feedback system. Please be mindful of this when negotiating with users here, and don’t go giving someone money you can’t afford to lose.
Rules:
- Please do not post the same items more than once every 7 days. If your post is close to the top of the board already, try to refrain from re-posting it. This makes it easier for everyone to find what they’re looking for.
- Every thread title should include all relevant information: If you’re looking to Buy/Sell/Trade, what item(s) you have or are looking for, location you’re willing to ship to, and some indication of pricing. If you’re unsure of pricing, say so, but try to have a starting offer.
- Posts must be relevant to Buying, Selling, or Trading. Please keep personal information to PMs, and discussion of items being sold or sought after to their relevant threads.
- No illegal items can be sold here. Duh.
As a matter of courtesy please be sure to include:
The appropriate code in your title: WTS/WTB/Pricecheck
WTS: Include your location, currency, where you are willing to ship to, item name, item price, shipping price, condition/description, and photos.
WTB: Include your location, currency, item name, price range if applicable, and condition wanted if applicable.
Pricecheck: Use this preface if you are unsure of how much you should be looking to buy/sell an item for, and the community can help you to ascertain a price.
Members are much more likely to engage with for sale items if your post includes prices and photos; the more information provided, the better.
