** NEW BST GUIDELINES **

[jbalcer]

The Buy / Sell / Trade forum is a place to part with personal craft items that we no longer need. All B/S/T listings should be craft related. You can find the Buy / Sell / Trade forum here:

Before you post
Be aware that the B/S/T forum is not intended for profit/retail sales listings, nor is it intended for operating a "virtual store business." Listings/posts may be considered a Virtual Store Business if any of the following applies:

• Ongoing listings of multiple items (ie: 1,000 coasters)
• We obtain knowledge of a member’s eBay, Internet, and/or retail store
• We obtain knowledge of a member’s access to wholesale products

As a courtesy to our members who are Stampin' Up! demonstrators, the posting of current stamp sets and/or accessories is prohibited in our forums. For more info, see Special notes regarding Stampin' Up! products below.

How to post your items
When posting your items that you wish to buy, sell, or trade, follow these instructions:

• First, select the appropriate forum for your item/s. ISO if you're looking to buy a particular item, Buy/Sell to list item/s for sale or sale and trade, or Trade to trade your item/s with someone else.
• To create your listing, look for the button that says New Thread.
• List all of your items in a single forum post. Don't create separate posts for each item.
• Update your original post as needed to reflect those items sold or traded (look for the Edit button on the right hand side of your original post).
• Create only 1 post either in the Buy/Sell or the Trade forums. Please do not post in both forums.

[jbalcer]

Posting in the Buy/Sell forum
Handmade items such as pre-made cards, coaster holders, swap cardfronts, scrapbook pages, etc. are not allowed to be listed as sale items.

Any item you have for sale or trade MUST be listed in your original post. You may include a link to a photo album where shoppers can see the condition of items provided; however, you must also list all items in your post. You may NOT provide just a link to a photo album without a list of items. Any thread that does not contain a list of items for sale/trade will be deleted.

Listings posted without a price or a wish list, or selling any current SU! merchandise will be deleted immediately. Posts with only links to merchandise whether on blogs, online photo albums, eBay stores, et. al. will be deleted.

[jbalcer]

Posting in the Trade forum
You can trade cardstock, ribbon, embellishments, or stamps. Anything to create a project can be TRADED. Trading of already made/crafted items such as lunchbox tins, cards, things you would find at a craft fair, etc. is not allowed.

[jbalcer]

B/S/T Forum Organization
To keep searches productive and postings current, listed threads will be deleted after one month (28 days). Please make sure you have all your contact information saved.

[jbalcer]

Advertising
We will delete all posts that are considered advertising such as on-line store ads, links to online auctions, independent rubber stamp/scrapbook consultant ads, etc. This includes, but is not limited to, cardstock or other sample rings, file tabs, and other craft organizational supplies that you may or may not have advertised in the B/S/T forums or in your signature lines previously.

You may not advertise your company or product or solicit customers in our forums. This includes, but is not limited to, your own specials, sales, open houses, stamp camps, products you sell on your website, etc.

If you would like to purchase advertising on our site, please visit our advertising information site or send an e-mail to Lori: lori@splitcoaststampers.com.

How to ensure a successful transaction

• Agree upon an expected date of product arrival to the buyer before the money is ever sent.
• Be mutually clear as to what type of delivery service will be used, and understand about how long that service could take for your product to arrive Ex: Priority mail could be about 2-3 days, first class could be 4-7 days.
• We highly recommend the use of delivery confirmation and/or insurance. In order to protect your purchase, use a secure online payment service (PayPal, etc.).
• Communicate with the seller/trader via email and/or PM.
• Keep records of your communications: delivery confirmation numbers, contact information, copies of emails/PMs (this is especially important in the event of a SCS site glitch!).
• If the product isn’t in your hands after 30 days, contact your online payment company for a refund.
• Contact a Splitcoast B/S/T Moderator if you need assistance.

Special notes regarding Stampin' Up! products
Sales listings are limited to RETIRED ONLY SU! merchandise for customers and SU! demonstrators alike. By eliminating the sale of current sets entirely, we remove questions and uncertainty about the demo status of sellers.

Items in the SU! catalogs are considered current until they have been officially retired (all retired items are announced before the end of a catalog period), and the pertinent new catalog is available for retail sales. All items on the dormant list are considered current and may not be sold in the B/S/T forums. All items in the SU! mini catalogs are considered current until the next full catalog is released, unless they are carried over into that catalog. Items currently retiring from Stampin’ Up! will be permitted in Buy/Sell and ISO threads as of July 1, 2009. *Edited 6/23/09

Postings in the ISO (want to buy) forum may not include current SU! merchandise. Current or retired SU! stamp sets may be traded, however. Post your listing in the Trade forum.

Discontinued ink colors can be sold in any style pad. SU! Classic (hinged lid only) and Craft (linen cover only) Pads may be listed for sale only if the color is a retired/discontinued color, regardless of the packaging. *Edited 12/11/07*

Items that are currently sold by SU! such as 12x12 repackaged cardstock and WWC are considered current whether in new or old packaging.

[jbalcer]

Special note for Stampin' Up! demonstrators
We have a special DEMO B/S/T forum for current hostess sets only and your SU! business supplies (items that are not available to the general public through the SU! Idea Book & Catalog). Postings of this type in any area other than Demo BST will result in your posts being moved or deleted. If you have other items to trade or sell, please list your items in the general B/S/T forum. If items are "pre-order" (such as before a mini catalog period is current for customers), then the items need to be in the Demo B/S/T area. Also, beginning July 1, 2007, inspiration sheets are allowed to be sold per SU!

To access the Demo B/S/T forum you need to be a member of the SU! Demos user group. To join the group, go to the Group Memberships page and request to be added. Requests must be approved by a group leader.

Important Reminders

• While the B/S/T forum is a valuable resource for our members, we do not guarantee or endorse any particular trade/sale. You are entering a B/S/T agreement at your own risk.
• As with any agreement between two people, please use common sense and good judgment when entering into a sale or trade.
• Members who do not successfully complete their deals risk suspension of their Splitcoast membership (we don't take banning lightly, and it would never be done without hearing your side of the story).
• If you intend to buy, sell, or trade here, please do so with the knowledge that if you do not follow through you may face mail fraud charges from the individual with whom you've dealt.
• Moderators and administrators may delete or edit any posts they feel are not in compliance with the B/S/T guidelines.

[jbalcer]

Thank you in advance for working to ensure all sales/trades are carried through.

Questions?
If you have any questions or suggestions for improvements to these guidelines, post your feedback in the B/S/T forum or direct them to a B/S/T moderator.
