One rule for everyone, no exceptions. A member who only comes on the forum to sell stuff should not be given preference over a member who actually engages with the forum but sells infrequently. Single tier, simple.

Any advert posted after 01 Dec will need to follow new rule. So if you re-post a current (expired) advert, you will need to include a new photo with username and date. Adverts will not be automatically removed on 01 December. Any current adverts that cross into December are fine, as they will expire within 7 days of the rule change. Wanted adverts are not sales/swap so do not count. However, anyone should do due diligence if responding to an offer from their Wanted ad or being randomly solicited.

Moved. @FinnC Best to add some photos to your post, so members can see the items and give a more accurate appraisal.

Due to the increase in scammers, and to add better protection for buyers, any sale or swap advert in the Classifieds must include one photo with your AFUK username and a date. Effective from 01 December 2024. Below is the updated rule 5: All sales and swaps advertisements must have a picture, all pictures must be taken by the seller. Do not use a retailers pictures - take your own. There must be at least one photo with a piece of paper showing your AFUK forum name and date next to the item(s) for sale/swap (this updated rule is effective from 01/12/2024). Do not use Photoshop or other editing software to include your username and date, this is what scammers do and will result in adverts being deleted from the Classifieds. Using photos with different usernames from other forums, and links to other forum photos, is no longer acceptable.

If I remember correctly, the forum restricted max number of adverts to 10 per member (all types - sales, swaps, wanted). This was to stop retailers, those members who are serious collectors acting like a retailer, and spam. A normal airsofter would not need to have more than 10 adverts active, likely only having a couple of adverts per week. Each advert lasts 7 days, you can see how long it has been running, if all 10 slots are used you have to wait for one to expire before you can create a new one replacing it. There is no need for a timer, the adverts already have one which shows how many days and hours it has left to run. The "group" part does seem superfluous.

Former two toned guns should definitely be mentioned in the advert. Easy enough to change an advert title to include two tone when an IF; I do change adverts titles to include two tone when an obvious IF but much harder to spot (and police) one that has had the bright paint stripped or painted over. At one point had considered whether it was worth creating a whole new sub-forum category in the Classifieds for Two-Tone (IF) guns, to separate them out from genuine RIFs.

Welcome .

Keep the boxes. Much better to have the original box to go with the gun.

Sounds like you would like a project Jez. Become a Mod and you can set up the new topics and move all the posts from gun picture topic into the new ones .

You own or work for axxxx. I have removed your advert. Maybe just be genuine and let members know this is a business you are involved in, and not acting as if a random member of public giving a recommendation

This forum is for Airsofters not shops, the Classifieds are for second hand sales. The forum rules do allow for a retailer to create one topic in the Places to Buy section, using their shop name as a title, with a link to their website and a description about why players might wish to do business with them. They are encouraged to engage with members and answer any questions that might be posted in their shop topic. If a shop topic is full of copy and pasted marketing spiel it will get no replies (before it's deleted). It is possible that a shop owner/worker could also an airsofter and wants to sell their personal items. However, any advert they create in the Classifieds needs to make sure that it does not have shop related images and retail style text (or lift from a retail website) because if in doubt the Mods will treat an advert as if it is from the retailer and not an individual.
