disruptive for sale posts

[Guest strapper]

ive witnessed some fanciers are posting uneccessary posts on the for sale section , where some people have posted for sale birds, i myself have recently sold some birds...1st time ever.

ive had questions thrown at me one way or another about the birds,if they are genuine questions then you dont mind , but i see that some are only intent in disrupting posts , when infact have no intention of buying.

anyone can visit my lofts and see the pedigree,s i have or the birds i have ANYTIME.

when someone joins the sellers group you have to give loads of info about urself address phone number everything, i think that, this for sale section has come a long way ,and thanks to web master has become better because of registration to become a seller.

i myself decided to sell for obvious reasons and i made them clear on one of my for sale posts.

ive nothing to hide, as i wouldnt want to be named on any site or any other as selling suumut that wasnt what i advertised.

all im saying is that if your not interested in whats for sale do not post a negative post to it, would you want them on ur post?

if summut is wrong on a sale , then report it to a mod or webmaster than they can deal with it.

disrupting a for sale post only gives fuel to a fire , and no one gains by it....only my opinion....paul.

as you state theres some uneccessary posts on for sale threads , however everyone is a potential buyer , if in your advertisment and that of others you can explain in as much detail  possible any forseable question that might arise from prospective buyers ,   then ask for the thread to be locked then all questions or further information can be done via private messages. You can save your private messages and copy and paste if repeating questions to members or the alternative is to have some questions arising that may be dificult , it is entirely up to the vendor to choose to answer these questions , as you have state you have no quarms with answering as nothing to hide this will however give the sale better credence as your honesty and integrity are the very first part of any sales pitch .

perhaps it might help if there was a online form eg

 

breed....................................stef van reet

sex   ....................................cock

colour....................................red

age  .....................................05

race results...........................2x1st-1x2nd-4x4th club approx 3oo birds 1x1st fed-1x3rd fed approx 8000 birds( season)

bred.....................................2x whatever race winners

parents.................................cock ( big bird  of sesame street)

          ..................................hen  ( yankee doodle pigeon)

 

i think this may be help full to those who cant post or have trouble posting pictures. obviously if there is anything else you can think of to go on the online form as i cant think of anything else right now. or perhaps a mod could put pictures up if sent to them via a email,

just a idea........................amanda

I have to agree that if someone is selling a pigeon and If for any reason there are issues then PM the vendor. There is no need for anything else.
