Spielfrieks "For sale" Posting Guidelines

A For Sale ("[FS]") post is any message that is primarily meant to advertise games for direct sale or to draw attention to an eBay auction or a "Games For Sale" web page.

First, let us point out that there is a separate mailing list at Yahoo Groups, Spielfrieks Marketplace, which was established in April 2002 to serve as the "classified ads" of the Spielfrieks community. Spielfrieks Marketplace can be found here:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/spielfrieks-marketplace/

For Sale [FS] posts on Spielfrieks must follow these guidelines:

1. For Sale [FS] posts must be limited to one message per person per week.

2. No game should be advertised for sale more than once by the same seller. That is, if you say "I have Password available for $50" then you shouldn't come back a week later and say "I have Password available for $5."

3. No posts should be made to remind everyone that a previously-announced eBay auction is soon ending.

4. Any For Sale [FS] posts (to either list) should be for Spielfrieky games -- not war games, not roleplaying games, not CCGs, etc. Spielfrieky games are "sophisticated board and card games, with an emphasis on German or European titles."

5. The [FS] tag must be used in the subject line so that those who do not want to read such posts can easily delete them.

6. For Trade [FT] posts are subject to the same restrictions as For Sale [FS] posts.

Members who do not follow these guidelines on Spielfrieks will receive a warning, followed by more drastic action (moderation of the member's posts, etc.) at the moderators' discretion. However, as long as they are for Spielfrieky games, posts are unrestricted on Spielfrieks Marketplace. Go crazy.

If you have any questions about these guidelines, feel free to contact the moderators at spielfrieks-owner-hHKSG33TihhUou4Mz/[email protected]
