    If you click on the seller you can see their trading history and the feedback they've received. From what I've seen there's very few problems on this site especially with someone with lots of positive feedback.

    Bump this thread. If you're not a prospective buyer, don't comment.

    Every so often it seems we have to have a reminder about comments in sales threads, so this is a reminder.

    We have a trading feedback system for positive, negative and neutral trading experiences and while it's not mandatory to leave feedback, it is of more assistance to forum members than taking pot shots at others in sales threads.

    Should be right there just as on normal threads? (Screen cap below from my PM messages - attaching photos to PM's works ok). If it's not showing up for you, maybe consider purchasing a membership ;)

    "Upload a file" button is missing in PM conversations.

    This button is available in forums but not for PM conversations. This is weird.

    You can also just drag and drop pictures into the reply and that should work as long as the file size is within the parameters that the website will accept. If the file size is too big, you can take the photo with your phone then screenshot the photo, that usually works. Or use an online file shrinker, easy to find via Google

    It was not the file size issue. The file size is 30kb and drag and drop did not work. Loaded the photos on a shared website for another member to see. It would have been much easier to send him the photos via text message or email but some people have their reasons to not share their mobile number or email address or just like to make things difficult for others. who knows. Thanks everyone for your support.

    This needs reinforcing every so often.

    Please refrain from off-topic or unsolicited comments in sales threads there's been a few creeping in.

    I understand that some comments are intended as advice regarding rarity, condition etc and I usually turn a blind eye to them. But comments on the trustworthiness of the individual selling items, history or whatever are not encouraged.
