A minor update on this:
While this forum isn’t really intended as a marketplace, we recognise that second hand sale postings can support the community in providing long and sustainable operating lives for our vehicles and components.
We’re not currently intending to provide a dedicated category for second hand sales, but I’ve created a second-hand-sale tag, and would recommend such posts include at least the following information, to encourage positive interactions and experiences for everyone involved:
- one or more photos of the item(s) being sold
- whether it has been assembled and/or the usage amount
- the original purchase date (at least roughly)
- a link to the relevant product page(s)
- the country/region it is being sold from
- the asking price
Once the sale is complete an update should be provided, with the checkbox selected to mark the post as “solved”. Ideally the buyer should also be privately sent the original order number and/or vendor information (e.g. if bought through a distributor), to improve their options for getting support if something goes wrong down the track.
New products should be posted about in the dedicated Third Party Products category, with some similar guidelines.
