Have some excess fossils from your journeys? Want to recoup a little gas money?
The Member to Member Sales Forum is intended to be a place where people can sell excess specimens, tools, or literature.
Or the same type of items that they just no longer want.
It is not intended to be commercial endeavor or market stall on the Forum.
This is intended to be a place where people can sell their extra fossils, tools, or literature.
***PLEASE NOTE:
Access to the sales area is a DELAYED PERMISSION. This gives us a chance to get to know you, and to weed out commercial dealers and spammers who only wish to sell here on the Forum without participating in other ways.
Please understand that the sales sub-forum is intended for the sale of surplus items, mostly to defray the cost of trips and equipment, and not as a major sales vehicle per se.
We strongly encourage members to engage the community beyond commercial transactions. Staff reserve the right to rescind the privilege of accessing the sales forum if a member is deemed to be in violation of the spirit and intent of the sales sub-forum.
The same substantial and significant community engagement that was necessary to lift restrictions on access to the sales sub-forum is expected to continue in order to retain those privileges.
PLEASE READ THESE RULES:
> For sales between members:
> Please, NO marketing of commercial websites, including Ebay, and Etsy.
> Items offered for sale here should not be concurrently offered through other venues, either via online OR brick and mortar stores.
> Also, NO marketing of services. (for example: preparation or restoration).
> Posting access to this forum is a Privilege restricted to members who have established themselves by contributing a reasonable, fixed number of posts of substance. Once you are approved, please read the Member Sales Policy AND pinned topics before posting or responding in this forum!
> Fossils and things directly related to the avocation ONLY.
Fossils, paleontological tools, display and storage fixtures, and literature. NO JEWELRY, PLEASE.
>Clear photos and specific pricing per item are required.
>We cannot perform $$ appraisals, but opinions as to relative quality can be offered.
> NO AUCTIONS!
While we had allowed Auctions here in the past, we do not feel that this is the correct venue for auctions.
We feel that the rule that states specific pricing is required comes into direct conflict with Auction Sales, and should not be allowed here.
Other websites are better equipped to handle this type of sale.
For transparency sake, Please post detailed photos of the fossils being offered.
Each fossil must have a specific price.
You may express your initial interests here; once contact with a sales partner is made, please continue your arrangements via private message.
Public notes on successful exchanges are encouraged; disputes must be settled privately.
The Forum cannot be held liable for deals gone wrong.
Buy and Sell at your own risk.
