New Zealand Datsun Club

Like other sites for sale section. I reckon that to sell something you must have name,location contact number price and a photo
This makes things easier for the buyer

10 4 on that one and the thread shud be deleted as as soon as its sold

There must be a FOSS classifieds engine we could run?

I think the location, e.t.c. is a great idea.
I dont know what a FOSS engine is.....but if you can show me some details of it e.t.c.....I can take a look into getting one set up

Some sites are insta delete if required information isnt supplied

Not sure about deleting as soon as sold, a month or 2 weeks later would be good so members can see what happened, if it all sold, what it went for perhaps, even who it went to if there was a collection of stuff, not sure why the info might be needed but would be a shame to lose information too quickly. I do see the need to keep the section tidy and have ads removed. Although archive stuff can be interesting too.

FOSS = Free Open Source Software

I dont reckon delete them but maybe edit the title so at the end of it says ...sold
EG
For sale datsun .....sold

Just lock the topics once sold. Having historical data on what price things sell for or are advertised are always handy.
