For sale posts are required to follow a certain format. Yes we will nit-pick it, no you cannot "sort-of" follow the rules.
What to do when your ad is successful
- Edit the thread title so that it starts with "[SOLD]". The edit button is in the three dots menu at the bottom right corner of your original thread post.
- Use the Flag button to alert a moderator, and write "This item is sold" in the message box.
When posting, follow these rules
- All threads must specify state. If you live somewhere regional, add the town onto the end of the title
- All car threads must specify model, year, transmission, colour, and price
- All car threads must include at least one photo
- Parts threads should display years and models the parts are for, where appropriate. If you're doing a clearout and selling lots of parts for lots of different models, you can be more general about what models they apply to
- All car thread titles must follow the same format as this example:
[NSW] 1981 244 GL - white - M46 - 6 months rego - $3000
- You can add other specifics if you think they're important, e.g.
[WA] 1981 244 GL - white - auto - blown HG - $500
or [NSW] 1992 240 - silver - auto - cold AC! - $2000
- Don't post in all caps.
- A price is required. Negotiable is okay, for example "$2500 ONO", or "$4000 negotiable". No price on inquiry and no being cagey about the price.
- If you want help valuing something, post in the Garage > General section instead.
Best Practices
- Avoid putting "Volvo" in the title. This is Oz Volvo, everyone already knows its a Volvo.
- If the model doesn't make it obvious, state whether its a sedan or wagon, e.g.
[TAS] 1996 850R wagon - grey - $2000
