Hey there, hope everyone had great time airsofting this weeked.

I am a long time player, now branched out in to making some custom HPA guns, adapters etc. But not sure how the best way to advertise it without coming across as a ( insert expletive here) that's just trying to shift stuff. Would it be best to adversise in Classifieds? i have just set up the web page so still getting to grips with that.

don't want to spam people XD as i hate people who do that.

Are you doing this to shift some excess stuff or is it more of a formal side hustle thing you are aiming to do? Both are cool but I think the scale of what you want to achieve will be the determining factor on if the forums are the best place for it.

Welcome!

Classifieds is the only section to sell stuff however it's only private sales and not retailers

Make sure to check out the classifieds rules before posting; https://airsoft-forums.uk/forums/rules.4/ if you're selling privately

There's also an appraisal section here; https://airsoft-forums.uk/forums/appraisals.115/ if you're not sure on prices or need a second opinion

If you're a retailer, there is a retailer section where you can advertise yourself

Ah awesome thank you, I think at this point I guess I am a retailer seen as i have my own website and stuff now lol. though its only limited at the mo. Its mostly HPA engines and adaptions for current platforms.

Its more of a side hustle at the moment, its mainly HPA engines ( made a custom HPA engine for SRS and some under leaver kit) now made my own Sniper VSR build with custom HPA engine. All assembled in uk. but obviously i am not of the level of say Novritsch

You should definitely make a post in the section Austeyr mentioned above I'm sure lots of people would appreciate an extra domestic option for that sort of stuff

Welcome, as has been pointed out, the classifieds are purely for private secondhand sales, any business ventures, however small initially, is considered a retailer, or equivalent.
That's not to say you can't sell your own personal items via the classifieds, just ensure you don't also have them advertised on your business website, somebody will spot them & report it.
You've also got the option to make a ONE thread in the places to buy category, which will be locked in fairness to others businesses that have similar threads, otherwise there's nothing to stop people bumping it to the top repeatedly.
But even if its locked, you'll still be able to edit the thread , adding website details, new kit etc, to keep everything current.
