How to use this service - for Buyers

[Remy]

• You must register in order to make contact with sellers.
• Click on the PM button under the left-hand side of the ad to contact the seller. Do not use the Reply button since online discussions of goods for sale are not permitted. The only area where you may reply to posts is Feedback and Suggestions.
• Establish with the seller that the goods are what you want and that the seller is genuine before you exchange personal contact details.
• For items of low value, you may wish the seller to post the item to you. For items of higher value, you may wish to meet the seller to inspect the goods before parting with your money. Agree all methods of payment and delivery in advance of any meeting to avoid wasting each others time.
• If do you agree to meet somebody to complete a transaction, use common sense about when, where and how you meet them. The great majority of sellers (and buyers for that matter) are likely to be good citizens but there may be some that are not. Much can be established in a quick telephone call before making arrangements to meet.
• Remember that your purchase is second-hand and may not come with any warranty or offer of a refund. There are many genuine bargains to be had but don't automatically accept everything as being genuine. Certain items like memory cards may be counterfeit. Maybe even the seller isn't aware of this. Again, common sense should prevail. For example, if a seller is selling a nearly new digital camera but doesn't have the manuals or battery charger or can't show you the original purchase receipt, ask yourself why. Caveat emptor prevails - buyer beware.
