Rules for selling on IMOCThe
'Parts For Sale' forum is a privilege for Premium Members only. Selling small numbers of parts as a Premium Member is encouraged.However:
1) If you are advertising any form of commercial goods or services or selling new items, you must be either an
Affiliate Trader or Affiliate Company. 2) If you are going to advertise a number of second-hand parts on a regular basis
(e.g. you often pick up bargains via other members/scrapyards and want to pass them on) you will need to be an Affiliate Private Seller3) If you have a large number of parts to sell on a one-off basis
(e.g. you are clearing out your garage or you have a redundant donor car that's being stripped) that's fine if you're a Premium Member General AdviceWhen selling:
- State a price- State whether making offers is acceptable or not- State if carriage is included or if it is collection only- Include a photograph of the item where possible- Try to deal with buyers in person- Use an independent escrow service (not provided by IMOC-UK Ltd.)- State your preferred method of securing the item in the first post (i.e. 'No calling dibbs - first to come up with the cash will buy') When buying:
- Try to pick up the item in person and pay by cheque where possible- Failing that, use an independent escrow service (not provided by IMOC-UK Ltd)- Stick to known sellers with good feedback where possible- Only say you'll buy an item if you have sufficient funds and are in a position to proceed with the transaction (e.g. you're able to collect within an agreed time if that's part of the deal)For IMOC-UK Ltd's position on sales conducted through the forum, please refer to the Legal Notice:
