Posting a vehicle for sale? READ THIS FIRST

Ok, I've seen way too many for sale threads that lack basic information that should've been included in the first place to help buyers get information quickly and easily. So, if you want to post your car for sale, it would be a good idea to go through this "checklist" and see if you've included very useful information that could make the difference in your sale. Not to mention adequate and accurate information will weed out people who don't really want your car that might have to post to get answers only to be let down AND waste your time.

Anyway...

Year, Make, Model, and Trim of the car
Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) for Carfax reports
Drivetrain layout if applicable (FWD, AWD, RWD, etc)
Automatic or 5-speed transmission
Color of exterior and interior
Interior fabric (cloth, leather, vinyl, etc)
How many miles are on the engine/chassis?
Is the engine rebuilt?
Is the title clear or salvaged?
Any new or replaced OEM parts?
Any new/upgraded aftermarket parts?
Are there any problems with the vehicle (mechanical, electrical, cosmetic, etc)?
Do you have any pictures of the vehicle to post?
Post your contact information (telephone, email, AIM, etc)
And one of the most important items: POST A PRICE (or trades)

Here is a sample ad:

1997 Acura Integra GS, clear title
VIN ABCDE12345678

tan leather interior

5-speed w/ 64,000 miles

Mechanically sound, well maintained and reliable
Asking $7,000 obo

cell: 123-4567
myemail@email.com
AIM: myaimname

Hopefully if you follow this little list, your threads will not be cluttered up with minor detailed questions and your vehicle will sell quicker and easier than any other method. Thanks for reading.

Just a reminder to everybody that flaming, bickering, and haggling is not to happen inside threads in the trading post. NONE.

If I, or anybody else gets a reported post email and finds you beating a seller's head against the pavement because you don't like something about what they're selling, you're gone. No warnings, no apologies. I'm sick of being bugged with the shit. It's not necessary. If you don't like it, don't buy it, and get out of the thread. It's that simple. If somebody's price is too high, they'll figure it out themselves when it doesn't sell.

So, if you have a serious question or want to stake your place in line to get an item, please post. If you want to haggle over the price or tell the seller he's crazy or the item is a piece of junk, do it in a PM. If an item is a fraud, contact a moderator.
