Welcome to the Bayoushooter.com Marketplace. In order to help ensure consistency in the threads, please abide by the following rules when posting a new thread or when adding a post to an existing thread, as it may apply:
Failure to abide by these rules will cause a moderator/administrator to move your thread to the Marketplace Bearpit without notice. If a poster doesn't follow the rules, the post will be deleted. Continuous violations may be cause for you to be banned for a period as determined by the respective moderator/administrator.
Summary: New threads MUST have; Price, Picture, Contact Info and Location.
NEW THREADS:
1) For sale threads must have a price. No 'make offer' threads. Feel free to put OBO, but at least start with a price.
a) WTB threads do not need a price.
b) WTT threads do not need a price unless there is the possibility of an outright sale.
c) Your thread's title must clearly state the intention of the ad. This means whether you want to sell, trade or buy. Widely accepted acronyms are preferred (WTS, WTB, WTT, FS, etc.).
2) Must have Photo(s) for WTS and WTT threads. The photo does not have to be of your item, but at least a stock photo of the item you are selling. Be aware that you'll have a better chance of selling your item if you use a photo of your item.
You must post pic at the time of posting, if you don't have a pic available find one on the net that will work as an example or wait to post the ad when you do have an one
3) Contact information. Please include contact information other than PM (private message). This can be an e-mail address, phone number or mailing address.
4) Location. You must have the location portion of your profile filled out. This is accessible under the "Settings" menu at the top of every page (click here). Location must be the city/town you live in or are closest to.
FOR ADDING A POST:
1) ONLY legitimate questions, directly related to the sale are authorized.
2) DO NOT participate in or start controversial conversations ANYWHERE in the Classifieds Section of the forums. If you do not agree with the sellers AD, in ANY way, simply ignore it. If you have a legitimate concern that the AD might be unlawful, REPORT IT. If the Seller has incorrectly posted the AD, REPORT IT. If you want to help the seller correct his AD use the Personal Message System
3) Making offers lower than asking price on items is fine but there is no reason to make a post telling the seller how high his prices are. If you don't like it, don't buy it but do not post about it.
4) NO derogatory remarks.
5) BUMP post allowed ONLY ONCE every 24 hours.
GENERAL RULES:
1) NO copyrighted, trademarked or other items that have a registered and protected intellectual property right connected with the sale (i.e., copies of MS office, photoshop, etc.) unless you are an authorized distributor.
2) NO items that are deemed illegal by the State of Louisiana, the state in which the seller resides, the state which the prospective buyer resides or the Federal government. If you have an item such as a 'widget' (for example) that is illegal for sale in Louisiana, DO NOT SELL IT. If it is legal to sell but that sale requires certain legal process to take place, then it is authorized. The onus is upon the seller/buyer to ensure those processes are completed.
3) Once your item is sold, please edit your thread using the Edit button and change the TITLE ONLY and add SOLD to the end. Please do not edit the actual ad as we want to keep track of how things were advertised in case any problems arise.
4) ONE bump per day. You may reply to questions but bumping is obvious even if you don't post "Bump," "TTT," etc so once per day.
KEEP YOUR SALE/TOPIC 'UP TO DATE':
Edit your Thread Title with "SPF(Sold pending Funds)," "Sold," "Traded," "Gone" etc.
This is to aid the moderators as well as buyers by knowing what the current status of the Sale AD is and whether it's still available.
In your original post, click Edit, then Go Advanced and edit the title from there.
*Please do not reply to your thread to mark it Sold.*
PRODUCT SERIAL NUMBERS:
The sales of ANY item with damaged, obscured, or obliterated serial numbers is FORBIDDEN!This board will not facilitate anything that is grey market, black market, or has the possibility or appearance of being either.
Violation of this Rule could lead to having your account Banned from the Website Permanently!
*WARNING* Buying/Selling/Trading - Multiple Guns Frequently *WARNING*
ATF Publication
Page 36.
*(c) Dealer in firearms other than a gunsmith or a pawnbroker. A person who devotes time, attention, and labor to dealing in firearms as a regular course of trade or business with the principal objective of livelihood and profit through the repetitive purchase and resale of firearms, but such a term shall not include a person who makes occasional sales, exchanges, or purchases of firearms for the enhancement of a personal collection or for a hobby, or who sells all or part of his personal collection of firearms.*
It has come to our attention of the possibility of a Seller who might participate in unlawful sales of Ammunition and/or Firearms not necessarily due to an ignorance of the Law but also the possibility of willful disobedience to the Law.
Based on this observation, ALL members are hereby warned of the following;
If guns are your hobby, great, we understand wanting to try them all.
If you want to make constant income on firearms and/or ammo,
you should obtain a Federal Firearms License.
If you break ANY Local, State or Federal Laws in the course of a sale you make in the marketplace, Bayoushooter.com will cooperate fully with any investigation by local, state, or federal law enforcement.
It is YOUR responsibility to familiarize yourself with Louisiana Laws concerning the ownership, possession, selling, trading and buying firearms.
*SOME* of these laws have been collected for your convenience located HERE
If you misrepresent items you are selling,(i.e. selling reloaded ammo as new), you can be permanently banned from Bayoushooter.com.
In Final; Ignorance or Willful Ignorance to the Law by no means provides you an exception or excuse to the Law.
