Buy/Sell/Trade aka B/S/T Rules and Guidelines
Be careful when doing any transaction online! GPKforums.com is not responsible for any failed transactions. However, we have these rules in place to help protect our members whether they are buying, selling or trading. Use caution and Report any suspicious activity to us right away!
Check Buyer/Seller feedback. Check the Member Feedback Forum. Also, if the user has their eBay ID posted, please check their feedback there as well.
Use Tracking or Delivery Confirmation. When sending items to another member, please use tracking or delivery confirmation so that there is some proof of delivery (if you know a member very well or if the card is not worth very much, you can ship w/o tracking at your own risk).
Use Paypal to protect yourself (Sending payment as a gift is the same as sending cash or a money order!). Paypal is convenient and safe for buyers, especially if you are buying from someone new or with someone you don't know.
Asking for Paypal Gift payments is NOT allowed. Please be aware that if you send payment as a GIFT, you will NOT be able to file a claim if there is a problem with the shipment. Sending payment as a gift is the same as sending cash or a money order! We do not recommend sending Paypal payments as a gift.
Include a price in the first post of your thread (Buying or Selling). If you're buying or selling, please POST A PRICE! Pictures are always helpful too.
No Auction type threads - This includes threads that ask for the best card for a certain amount of money (ie. I want the best card/lot for $$XX threads). If you've got some money and are looking for something specific, make sure your title and description reflect exactly what you want.
Keep your thread updated. If your item sells, go back and edit your first post with ** SOLD ** at the top. This way people don't waste time viewing it if it's not available anymore. If it's a want list, update the first post instead of posting updated lists...this way others won't have to read the entire thread and start a spreadsheet to figure out which cards you still need.
Items for sale or trade must be in your possession. Selling items that are incoming or not in your possession is NOT allowed.
Keep the clutter to a minimum. If you multiple items for sale, try to keep it to a minimum of threads. Excessive threads will be deleted or merged.
No COMMERCIAL posting allowed. - The B/S/T Forums are for GPKforums.com members and collectors to trade and sell among each other. All commercial posts will be deleted.
No Raffles, Grab Bags, etc. - No Raffles or any other similar postings. Only straight up buying, selling, trading.
