(R12) The description of items for sale/swap should be clear, concise (Make, Model, Age, Condition) and include details of any damage, defects or any other information that a potential buyer should be made aware of.

(R13) It is the responsibility of the seller to ensure any item sold is safely received by the buyer. If a buyer claims an item has not been safely received and the seller cannot provide proof to the contrary (i.e Special delivery tracking/delivery confirmation etc) then the seller will be expected to provide a full refund including any fees charged for P&P. If a transaction cannot be conducted in person then It is imperative that any items sent from buyer to seller or visa-verse are sent by a fully tracked and insured method.
