What requirements to post ad
« on: 25 Mar 2018, 12:04 am »
 Don't deal with paypal s**t. Tried both A-gon and US audio mart. A-gon will only let me accept paypal or credit card for pymt. and I'm not putting my checking acct. number out there in cyberspace. Audiomart wants at least 2 pics. I can only send pics thru text. Be helpful if they informed a person of this before going thru all the time to make up an ad. Are there any such requirements for AC such as those two I mentioned?
Thanks

While you may have your preferences on payment type, you're limiting your scope with your hesitation to post pics.

If I don't see 3 or 4 decent photos within the ad, I just move on.  I don't request pics nor give out my email address or phone number just to see them.  That kind of information might only be exchanged after a deal is struck.

Since I have a flip phone can I post pics with a tablet connected to my laptop? Thanks

The source from the pics are indifferent to the site.

Does your tablet have a camera?  If so, it’s probably better than a flip phone camera...

 Have a bunch of gear to sell.

Brettio, thanks for that bit of opinion, but I don't need paypal to manage my money. Paypal has only come about as the only pymt. method at A-gon in last few yrs. Btw, paypal froze my acct. 'cause a scammer tried to deposit $5k into my account and I'm the bad guy according to paypal and I had nothing to do with the actions of someone else.
May be time to buy a tablet or ipad. Ipad most likely since I'm buying a Macbook air. one other thing I've always been paid by USPS m/o or Certified check. That's how I paid for puchases also.

I just checked a half dozen or so for sale ads at random on US Audiomart and I saw Cash, Money Order and Cashiers Checks listed as methods of payment on multiple of them.

In rereading your post I realize that I assumed you already had a tablet.  I put off getting an iPad for a long time, now that I have one I rarely use my pc. 

As far as PayPal....I’m no fan as I’ve had issues as well.

List your gear, put your price and terms and see what happens.  Personally I don’t think requiring a check or money order is a big deal...except when I want the gear yesterday and I have to wait for the check to clear...

So do most buyers.
I've had very good luck selling over at USAM.

Speaking  for myself. No paypal? No photos?  No sale.

At the end of the day PP gives the buyer some security or a feeling of it. 
I also want nice pictures.  Have you tried selling the stuff here?
