Rules:
1. CHOOSE FIXED PRICE OR AUCTION for each listing. Fixed prices are considered negotiable up to the listed price. If you’d like a firm price please list as “firm”. Auctions should have an opening bid and an ending date/time. Sellers are responsible for monitoring all auctions and calling them as they end. The last bid to win, will be the last bid BEFORE the end time. If the end time is 9pm, the last bid placed BEFORE 9pm. In this example the final 8.59 bid, not 9pm bid would win.
2. POST TO ALBUMS when possible. Albums have been created in categories for this page.Please upload to the album pertaining to your post rather than posting to the wall. Additionally, do not create new albums, they will be deleted. Use the album categories set up by admins. We understand that it is not possible to do so from the mobile Facebook app at this time so users who are exclusive to those formats are exempt from this rule at this time. Sellers who have a small business (Facebook page, etsy, etc) should limit postings to one photo in the business album and a link to their site.
3. BE A RESPONSIBLE SELLER. Please list price/ size/condition/ and your location on each post. Give a fair and honest description of each item informing the buyer of any stains/flaws. Do not purchase items elsewhere and re-sell them here for prices above retail value. Sellers from outside the SCV area must arrange to meet buyers in Santa Clarita . Also, as a courtesy to others please limit BUMPING of items to 1-2 times per day. If you list an item on more than one site simultaneously (examples: listing an item on craigslist and here, or listing an item on two sites here, etc.) please indicate "Cross Posted" on the listing so buyers are aware and go in comment order by timestamp across all postings. Be sure to update posts as necessary to keep buyers informed. Items that have expired or have been recalled are not allowed to be listed on the sites. Items containing offensive language, nudity and other inappropriate material are not allowed.
4. BE A RESPONSIBLE BUYER. The buyer is responsible to pay for all items claimed. If you change your mind or cannot meet/pick up item please contact seller. If you accept an item then later change your mind you may repost it on the site for the price you originally paid or lower. Do not purchase items on the site and sell them elsewhere (Craigslist, eBay, etc) for more than what you paid. Pick up all items within 72 hours of agreeing to purchase unless you and the seller come to another agreement regarding a pick up time.
5. BE KIND and RESOLVE DISPUTES. Verbal attacks, rude comments and drama of any kind will not be tolerated. When issues arise, please PM the seller/buyer and work it out between the two of you, for items that cannot be checked on the spot, please ask about the sellers refund policy prior to purchasing. Refrain from posting on the wall as it causes unnecessary drama.
6. BE FAIR. Posts go in comment order. The first person to comment asking a question or indicating interest has dibs on the item, comment must show interest in purchase "interested" "in line" etc. Comments admiring the item do not count, eg. "cute". Tags are welcome suggestions but are not considered place holders in line. Buyers are not permitted to hold spots in line for other buyers. If you’d like to post an item specifically for one buyer (in response to an “ISO” for example) use the wording “For (name)” in the description of the post. This gives first dibs to the person listed in the “For”description. Additionally, if a seller gives another method of contact (cell, email, etc) please comment on the post first before contacting in order to ensure a record of comment order on the post.
7. BE SAFEThis site is a “secret” group, which means that you can only be added to it by a Facebook friend of yours who is also a member. Please help us keep the site safe by only adding members whom you can personally vouch for. If someone you do not know PM’s you asking you to friend them and add them to the groups please do not do so. You may be held accountable for the actions of those you add to the group. Also, for the protection of all, you must be 18 years or older to be on the site. If we find any minors on this page, they will be removed. If you know of any minors on this page, please contact an admin.
8. CLEAN UP AFTER YOURSELF. All sold items must be removed when the item has been picked up. Please click the photo and choose options, then remove this photo to do so. (Facebook has a picture limit that we are trying to avoid reaching)
9.AVOID CONFUSION. If you have a similar item (or the same item) as one being sold,please make a separate listing. Postings within a posting are not allowed. Limit your photos to one per item. If you have multiple views of a listing please PM buyers additional photos rather than posting on the site OR use a photo app that allows multiple pictures within one picture. Additionally, if you add a new person to the page please notify them of the rules so they may follow them as well. Please post items to the correct page, items on the wrong page will be removed.
10. BE PATIENT. As a courtesy to the buyer, once a question is answered and/or clarification is made, sellers must wait a minimum of 12 hours before moving on to next in line. Please tag or PM them if you answer their question. Additionally, buyers should contact sellers within 12 hours of agreeing to purchase an item in order to work out pick up details.
11. BE RESPECTFUL. Admins (listed below) are here to make the site run smoothly and as fairly as possible. Admins work as a team and are in continuous communication with each other in order to assist buyers/sellers of this site. Please be respectful of admins at all times. Do not under any circumstances block any of the admins. If you do not agree with the above rules, please remove yourself from the group. If you choose not to follow the above rules you will be removed from the sites. Admins reserve the right to remove members from the group at any time for any reason. Admins also reserve the right to delete photos that have not been commented on/bumped in 30 days or more and photos posted on the incorrect page.
