APC For Sale Forum Guidelines

[AaronT]

A 12th rule has been added to the for sale forum rules.

8. The use of the iTrader system is mandatory.

Just curious, how is this rule enforced? I'd like to know because I have to pay by cash through the mail, and I'd like to have as much feedback as possible so people are more willing to accept that method of payment. I also want to avoid sending nagging reminders to those who have received payment from me or received plants from me.

just my Opinion, why dont we create a List of Persons that are Guarantee to pay Cash Mail or Check Mail or a Logo on their Sig that saying that this person is Guarantee to pay by mail, cause i saw some complaint from the seller that they already send the stuff and payment for that stuff is still not arriving, and then when they call the person who ordered, no response, so what im saying is this will help the seller and the buyer to trade or sell stuff without worrying, well this is only my opinion and suggestion, disregard it if this is a idiot idea,

This guideline has been edited. There is no way we can require everyone to use this excellent feature. We strongly encourage everyone to use iTrader for all transactions originated from APC.

It is never a good idea to send Cash through to mail.

That said, it is between the buyer and seller to make the arrangements needed to facilitate consummation of the sale. If the buyer needs to send a check to the seller please be sure to contact the seller to determine if the seller will accept a check as payment and if so what are the hold times. Often times plants are already trimmed and need to be sent within a day or two. Asking a seller to hold off until a check is received in the mail and clears is a potential hardship for the seller.

How would I do this for someone without previous iTrader ratings? I think iTrader is a great idea but its not all that easy to use. If you want people to use it needs to be easier. I would like to leave an iTrader rating for someone I just bought from but can't figure out how. I have left a rating for one person before but can't figure out how to do it without being "invited" to. Maybe I am just special ed or need more coffee.

Under the person's name in one of his/her posts the itrader rating appears even if it has a '0'. Click that number and you will be taken to where you can leave that person rating.

In a BRILLIANT (that is sarcasm) flash of insight I finally figured out what was wrong. I was using APC light and there were no iTrader listings under People's names. I totally thought I was losing it. Thanx and sorry to be so slow to catch on.

Bump. Please see rule 14.

Hi... I just tried to do a WTB post, but it told me I needed to have at least 25 posts to do so... either I am doing this wrong, or you have to have 25 posts, whether you are posting to buy or sell. Is this accurate? Thanks!
