This section is quite a busy one and I thought it may be helpful to post
these guidelines & tips for members using it.

.

No animal(s) for sale postings - such postings will be removed
When/If your item sells please edit your posting and add Sold to the subject line.
Buying Items:
Ensure that you read the description thoroughly before you make contact.
Some items sell quickly - if you are interested in an item(s) then make contact asap.
If you arrange to view please do turn up - or contact the seller to cancel.
Ensure you ask questions & are happy with the items prior to purchasing.
If you wish to negotiate/haggle on the price please do it via email.
Please keep postings on topic.
Wanted Items:
Please start the Subject line with: Wanted or WTD:
In the Subject line please try and inform potential sellers what you are looking for.

Safety Reminder:
If you need to post your mobile numbers then don't forget to edit them out afterwards.
You don't need to post your email addresses - an email icon is set to appear by default.
Sellers be aware there are email buying scams around (another reason not to post your email address).
Sellers please ensure that you get cash/cleared funds before releasing your items.
*The above will probably get updated from time to time.
Cheers
