Hello Mod,
Just want to understand something. I always do my best to follow the selling guidelines, one of which is to no list books here and on eBay at the same time and I always do take particular care about that.
When I finish a FS thread, I do not always post "Thread is closed" as it gives the thread an unnecessary bump, especially when the FS thread is lost in oblivion, i.e. on page 3 or more which for me is an implied closing of a FS thread.
Recently, one person did post a in one of my FS threads that was inactive and closed (although I did not directly post that the thread was closed), giving it an unwanted bump a month later. I immediately replied by saying the thread was closed as I have many of the books now listed on eBay. However, I got a warning this morning that I did not follow the guidelines, and the closed thread got locked.
The rule says: 4- It must be an exclusive board-only offer. If the book is offered for sale through another venue (ebay, dealer site, personal web site, etc.) then it should NOT be offered here. It should be offered in the Sales Advertising board.
What did I do wrong here? Should a closed FS thread now be always labelled as closed even though it is inactive for weeks?
Thanks in advance for the answer.
