Where possible, meet face to face to see the item and exchange payment. We will be introducing an escrow service for delivered goods as soon as possible. When meeting a stranger, always ensure there is someone else with you or meet in a public place.

If you make a payment before receiving an item, you risk losing that money if the item never arrives or is not as described. You should inspect the goods before sending any ARRR, there is no way to recover it once it has been sent, buyer beware!

We do not offer any standard process for specifying the delivery of items. In general we try to encourage people to buy locally and pick the item up in person but if this isn't possible, it is for the buyer and seller to decide on an agreeable method of delivery and payment. If you wish to put any details of delivery in your advert such as the extra cost if any,  you can add that to your advert description.

Featured ads are available to Buccaneer account holders and will showcase your ad in the listings. Buccaneer's have ten rolling featured ad capability. To upgrade send a message in the contact form and we we tell you what to do.
