Updated classified section rules - effective 1/1/2019

So listing just soliciting discreet/private offers is not allowed, even with Classified Subscription ?

 

Sorry for not being clearer. I’ve been considering Classified Subscription for listing a (vintage) car for sale here, but rather than providing an “asking price” I’d prefer to offer additional privacy and discretion to those eventually involved with final transaction by soliciting offer(s) from seriously interested parties.
I don’t even want to share any identifying details, including photos or its VIN publicly for same reasons.

P.S. I do like the limiting of nonsense comments/replies though.

 

The rules are pretty clear about posting a price. FChat classifieds really isn't a venue for "Private Treaty" sales. I conduct quite a bit of high-end collectible business by private treaty because the buyers and sellers prefer anonymity and do not want the details of the transaction to be available to the public.

 

Well, I was hoping to see if it could be established and/or utilized as such.
Fortunately I didn't fork out the $$s right before the rule change, which seem to include some retro-active requirements.

OK, understood, but given the car in question is intended and will likely appeal only to a very limited pool of potential buyers, perhaps fewer than couple of dozen individuals around the world, all whom likely are aware of (published) "average market values" of the given make/model and/or will likely seek some outside advise/assistance in assessing/inspecting it before submitting an offer, would something like "offers above (perceived) median market average considered" meet the asking price requirement ?
Or would publishing that "average" be enough ?

I know my approach is unconventional and my questions are likely stretching the patience of admin & mods, but just trying to establish a clear understanding before selecting marketing avenue for this and other items or products I may wish to offer in the future. I believe some marketing outlets like eBay, FML, etc require VIN to list and therefor IMO don't offer enough discretion/privacy (for the car).

 

Thank you.

 

OK, so I've read the rules & the 4 pages of comments here, but it's still unclear to me how the # of cars for sale is determined.
I'm reducing my collection from 5 to 3, and currently have my TR4 (listed last year and yet unsold) and expect to list my Multipla in the near future once it's finally finished. One per year implies I can have both running concurrently since thy will have been listed in different years.

correct or incorrect?

& FWIW, I'd choose # 1 option -

 

Hi. I’m trying to post on individual classified forum but it doesn’t come up as an option to list a new thread.
Are you able to advise?
Many thanks

 

Just curious why do my pot on feralc 360 for sale keep being deleted? Same thing for Shamile?
Why? Can’t ask or tell someone they have a nice car or are meticulous ? What Is the rule that prevents that?

Right - once again it’s not the first time I notice interesting moderating at your end.
I know the seller, I say he is meticulous and would buy from him with no issues, shamile says the same. That is exactly what we are allowed to do as per post one, I’d love to what was wrong ; feel free to expose me or my comments there because I truly think on this one u are not respecting the rule.

See what I am referring to:
«
Anyone posting on an ad must be 1) asking a legitimate and relevant question; or 2) providing accurate, first-hand information on that specific car, item, or seller. All other commentary (negative or positive comments regarding the condition or asking price, comparing asking price to current market/recent sales/other cars or items for sale, critiques or plaudits for the seller, etc.) will be deleted and repeat offenders will be subject to infraction/ban/etc at the discretion of the moderators. »

Then u could have deleted parts but not everything ? I have seen you do this with other post when you took off the unnecessary bits.
Listen I get it u are doing ur best but then the forum totally loses credibility when you have people like one in the picture attached typing non sense stuff all the time. Image Unavailable, Please Login
This may be deleted but you got admit the rules should apply to everyone and everything no?
Again I get it u are doing ur best but...

Of course he is but as u can see no nobody call him bro, daddy or things like that not to mention the constant price swinging. Being polite and transparent is a minimum right? Anyways have a great evening.

I think u should read of his posts and then comment...clearly money talks and I don’t buy for a second that sponsors are treated any different...but hey if that’s what you believe that’s great. Have a good night.

Instead of going through the 1000+ ads, is there a way to group all the 308's or 355's or 488's?

 

One uses the Search function.
