Picture(s) for Classified(s) - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

To Admin and or Site Moderator(s)

Noticing quite a bit if not most of the classified posted here has no actual pics of said item(s) for sale by OP. I believe that it would benefit the potential buyer and the seller if pics were added to the post(s). Picture also proves what is being put out to the community and can be viewed to help both parties.

When I purchase items from any forums, I like to see the pic(s) of the actual items sold buy the OP in it’s actual condition when posted and not attachment from goggle or someone else’s image. This helps both parties in closing the transaction.

Surely pics can be sent via PM if asked, yet posting on the original thread would elevate the hassle of sending pics to everyone who may ask, and if the pics were posted in the tread, this will be out to the community to view what they are purchasing or are in interest.

This is just a suggestion, yet this may help the site and the community as a whole in the long run.

Thank you for listening.

Eric.

Price should be stated as well.

I agree, a few forums I've been on require a verification picture (username on a piece of paper in one of the photos) and I think that is a very good requirement and helps reduce the amount of shady sellers
