(1) Compulsory photograph with name and date alongside handset
Thank you
Moderators request members exercise self-responsibility and vigilance. The operation of the Classified are periodically reviewed. If (2) is not seen to be working then far more drastic measures (such as involving a photo of a seller holding a handset in a mirror to be supplied during PM) may be considered. Your co-operation is gratefully acknowledged as we strive for a safe trading community, without adversely inconveniencing the vast majority of honest traders.All handsets offered for sale or trade must be accompanied by either:
(a) Username and date written on paper next to the handset, or
(b) Username and date on the handset display
Low resolution or unclear photographs will be rejected. Any listings that do not comply will be Archived by Moderators. Repeat offenders may result in trading privileges being withdrawn.
This requirement in no way negates the need to exercise common sense and vigilance as outlined separately.
More reports of mis-description or alleged fraud are made involving mobile phones / tablets than any other item. 9/10 that is because no details were obtained, or details were obtained but the buyer did not bother to verify prior to payment
Thank you
