There seems to be plenty of confusion as to what is considered an indirect bump and what is allowed. This guide will contain the definitive guide as to what is and what is not an indirect bump.

As a general rule to moderators and enforcers, we will not be too fussy or narrow-minded. The benefit of the doubt, if there is one, will always be given to you.

NOT ALLOWED
1. 'UGPM'
2. 'Bump'
3. 'anyone?'
4. 'please buy'
5. come come
6. ..etc are all NOT allowed.

ALLOWED
1. Price changes - Posting a post when you change your price is allowed, provided its not done too often that it becomes a sham.

2. Compliments - Posting to thank someone for compliments is allowed. However, if you have 3 compliments, please thank all in one post rather than post three in intervals. Intention matters.

3. Availability notices - Posting to say something is already sold is allowed. In a similar note, posting to say you have something in stock is allowed.

4. Reservation notices - When an item is reserved for someone, posting it is perfectly fine and even encouraged.

5. Updates - You may post to state you have updated your first post, but you must state what it was which has been updated (eg, price, pictures). You may, however, not post to state you have updated your buyer list for bulk items.

In all the above cases, you must combine consecutive posts. If you opt not to combine consecutive posts by checking the box, then you are deliberately circumventing the system and cheating. The same applies if you deliberately stagger your posts, for example, by thanking someone more than 3 days after the compliments was paid.

I created a new garage sale thread and don't seem to be able to add some more of my items. It keeps jumping back to the first post. Is this because I have a limit of the # of pics I can post? I checked some other sellers posts and they are able to update 3-5 posts per day with pics. Pls help!

I think he meant TS can delete their own topic upon successful trade.

To ihsan,

Don't think that will work well as, some TS do not even bother to come back and leave a 'item sold' message / close the topic. 2ndly, inactive topic / topic with item sold will sink to bottom if it is not BUMP-ed and get pruned after some inactive time. 3rdly, as topic is deleted, it is hard for member to make reference / evidence upon a dispute case.
