For sale section suggestion - Suzuki SV650 Forum: SV650, SV1000, Gladius Forums

Okay two things bug me about it.

First it should be required to post a price. This is the way it was on my last forum and it really moved things along. There was no more "how much do you want?" "i dunno make me a price" bull. That is what OBO is for.

Second It should be required pictures posted of it. Why send pics if asked? What if i was going to buy it and decided bull thats too good of a price with no pics, im not even gonna bother to look at the pics. I mean if your willing to send or post them later why not post them now?

Also there was a post awhile back about a really 19000 dollar chopper ( i think that was the price) and the guy posted a picture that looked like the thumbnail to a photobucket album. If your gonna post a picture, post it so people can see the details.

Thanks for reading my suggestions!

There's another forum where any threads with no price, pictures and location simply get deleted.

required to post a price? we have this listed in the bikes for sale section, but not the others. good suggestion.
pics required? I do prefer to see pics before I buy something but I dont think it needs to be required.

I'll talk with the other mods about getting some better rules/guidelines set up for the for sale forums.

awesome thanks.. I guess the picture thing is more so when your buying a used part that they say has normal wear and tear. Most people want to see what they call normal. (normal for a stunter is different than a tourer)

Just wanted to reiterate this. Nothing is more f**king annoying than "Make me an offer". F**king post the price you'd like to get for it, if I want the item but don't like your price I'll counter-offer. This is how negotiations are done. Don't show me what you have and tell me to make you an offer, I'll offer you $1.00.

+1

No price and/or no picture I dont even bother going any further ... I go to the next thread

And counter offers should be done via PMs not in the general thread. Show a small shread of decorum to the seller.

I just posted an add with no pics

Pics are helpful for sure.
