Posting Timelines Explained:
(72 hours = 3 days)
Swap Meet Section:
3 Days/72 Hours BEFORE RELISTING
Once a thread has been listed for sale in the "Swap meet section" you must mark it sold & wait 72 hours (3 days) before relisting it again.
Just count 72 hours (3 days) from date first listed before relisting the item(s) back again in that section.
For Sale Section: 7 DAYS BEFORE BUMPING ** No setting to Sold and re-creating Ad** USE BUMP ONLY
Once an item has been listed in the "For Sale section" you'll have the ability to put it back on the first page with the use of the bump button.
This bump button will show up after 7 days on your F/S page. (my For Sale). You cannot close your sale & recreate it in order to bypass that limitation nor to put it on fresh listing. Once a listing is made, your only option is to bump it, you cannot recreate it. If you have a listing that has been marked pending or sold for legitimate reasons, but then needs to be relisted (example, deal fell through) then contact a Staff Member
Switching Sections:
Once an item(s) has been listed For Sale in the "Swap Meet section" & you choose to move it/them to the "For Sale section" you must mark the thread sold & wait 72 hours before moving the items back into the "For Sale section"
Just count 72 hours (3 days) from date first listed before moving the item(s).
This vice versa if you move your items from "For Sale section" to the "Swap Meet section".You must always "mark sold" if you relist or if you choose to move your items to another section.
You can only have one Active For Sale Thread with the Same Item(s).

Some General Guidelines (Every case is different):
Payday Loans - Sellers who do not Ship & Refund later on, will be Noted in the Admin Notes. Do it 3 times, youâ€re out. (Banned Permanently)
Scammers, Selling something & not Shipping, not Refunding or skip Town Sellers will be Banned.
If the Seller does not Ship within 1 week (unless arrangements have been made), PM a Mod/Admin. We will Investigate it until the matter is cleared.
