Being on numerous other Forums(mostly Toyota ones), It has come to my attention that in the For sale forum might need some extra rules applied to it as a preventative measure.
Something in the lines of:
-Pictures of actual product is required when creating a thread.
-You must also include in the picture a piece of paper, with your username and Sprinter-source.com written down on it. This is to verify that it is your actual product and not a copied image found on the internet. If you have the time to create a thread for an item that you are trying to sell, then you have time to post pictures up with this requested information.
-Potential buyers will want to be able to evaluate how much shipping fees can amount to when buying your part. Therefore, you MUST add your full location in your profile. Your location tag must include a City AND State (or Country).
-The Edit and Thread Deletion options should been turned off in the For Sale Forums . By disabling these features, users can no longer post an item for sale, and then edit or delete a thread when they've received payment, leaving the purchaser with no valid point of contact, or claim in court. Simply state that the item has: "Been Sold", "No Longer For Sale", or "No Longer Available". Then allow the thread to die on it's own.
That's about it . Please don't take this in a wrong way, I think this Forum is very informative with some very knowledgeable people. It just came up to my attention that it lacked some basic rules to make the For Sale forum better.(IMO)
