CLASSIFIEDS--It's that Time of the Year

[bbcoach]

I wanted to touch base with everyone and remind you, with Turkey seasons right around the corner, many people will be posting in the CLASSIFIEDS in the next several months.  Most follow the Rules that Shannon has setup to Protect Us (New Classified Rules 2019), but several won't for various reasons.  Some don't know there are rules and haven't read them, some don't care to follow them for various reasons, and a few are here to relieve you of your money with NO intentions of providing goods or services.  Let's ALL do our part and KINDLY remind the Rule Breakers, that there are rules to follow, and these rules are set in place to Protect US ALL.  If the KINDLY part doesn't work, then report them to a Moderator for follow up.  I hope ALL of us will be vigilant and do our part so NO ONE will EVER get taken.  GREAT PLACE here! LET'S KEEP it this way!

Yes, lets protect our classifieds and our forum members ... especially from scammers ... Please report these people ...

I'd just like to add that I recently bought a call from the classified and the seller had enough posts so that was fine, but another high post long time member vouched for the seller. He posted in the listing that the seller was trustworthy in his experiences with him. I found this to be very helpful and reassuring.

Open up Turkey Call Classifieds and you can read the rules

[bbcoach]

As Greg Stated, OLD GOBBLER has provided his post / rules at the top of ALL the classifieds.  Open any classified section and look for, NEW CLASSIFIEDS RULES 2019, in the light grey section above the classified posts. Sellers need to adhere to the rules and buyers should only buy from sellers that follow these rules to prevent post and run Scammers.

Thanks for the Kudos!  I felt this was something that All of us needed a reminder of.  I've seen in years past from January to May, OG gets its fair share of Classifieds.  Many are legitimate classifieds from people that frequent this site regularly.  Some don't adhere to the rules that OG has put in place for our Safety and a few people get taken.  Let's be diligent.  Each buyer and seller need to read and follow the rules and do their part, so NO ONE gets taken.  Shannon's House, Shannon's Rules!

By the way, I know some people have a hard time posting pictures, if you do please contact me and I will try to teach you how to post them, in most cases your pictures are either to big or in the wrong format both problems can be easily fixed and if nothing else you can use a third party image hoster like https://imgur.com to share them.

m this day forward January 1 2019 ....

To finally end the the never ending BS with these low post  folks doing "hit and run" classifieds scams , and we dont have any misunderstandings , there are some new rules and they are all common sense rules

1) PayPal on everything.....and not "friend/gift " transfer....if you wish to have your OG account deleted , just let me see a screen shot of you asking for " f
Gift" money transfer with no PayPal protection and I will delete your account faster than I click off the safety of my Remington-- the only loophole is if the seller is a bonafide callmaker and does this professionally --It is entirely up to the sellers discretion if they will accept a cashier's check or postal money order instead of PayPal

2)Members with less than quality 100 posts , may only have 1 running classifieds ad running at any given  time ... the reasons for this rule are obvious ...

3)Members with less than 100 posts MAY NOT DO CALL TRADES IN ANY MANNER that pretty much ends 98% of the call trade BS right there...

4)No member ....even of you have 10,000 posts can trade a call with any  member with less than 100 posts no way of getting around it guys ...

This is not a place to unload busted calls and haul a$$ ...the people doing this are doing quick "hit and runs" and dont care if they burn you ...if its too good to be true...IT IS

5) Members with 50 or less QUALITY posts on top of only being to have one ad at a time can only sell a item equal or less than thier post count ...so if you have N. Cost box call and you have 48 posts ....you have 2 options Start posting to the forum ...or ask $48 for the call ...

6) pictures....take plenty.... more is better , ask for more if unsure ...good pictures sell calls and items ....ask to have the call run BEFORE buying

7) shipping ....its up to the seller and buyer to discuss details and courier --if your call got destroyed or lost  in transit then the insurance that the buyer is responsible for asking for will cover it ....if it was part of a call trade then ask for your item back as that was the currency for the transaction ...minus shipping & insurance fees (both ways )

8. ) DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES buy anything from a add without a picture....(I dont want to see any of this ask for details or pm for picture) .if you see a classifieds add without a picture,  PM me......if they have less than 100 posts DONT DO BUSINESS WITH THEM

9) FIRM price....so we dont end up like Ebay with thousands of pieces of plastic junk clogging up the forum

10) pay quick...ship quick ....all transactions are pay up front..get all contact info and details , Google the ph#  and address to make sure its legit....if it looks sketchy.....then it is...

11) No firearms ....I get asked all the time ...no more guys..no notifications etc...or asking to make a post selling it elsewhere .... felons acquire firearms like this...also all its gonna take is a undercover/plainclothes to try and set you up do not even , notify , hint, or ask permission to sell a firearm ..if you PM me asking to make a post I'll simply ignore it and if I see you place a add for a firearm your account will be deleted

..also its up to the shipper and buyer to know all local laws pertaining to ammunition and firearm parts and know if your in full compliance

..also no ivory guys....dont want to hear or hint about it ...if it's not fully legal ...its not to be talked or done here
