Automotive Sales Policy on PriusChat - Read BEFORE Posting

[Danny]

*** Automotive Sales belong in the Commercial Sales forum ***

The Private Sales forum is for private member's items only!

PriusChat is a very useful tool to market your product to the thousands of visitors we have every day. However, lately the idea of "free advertising" on PriusChat has turned into an abuse of the site and a waste of bandwidth for our users.

Effective immediately, there will be a nominal $20 charge to begin a Group Buy or sell retail items by businesses or individuals at PriusChat. There is no charge for our Sponsors. If you are interested in becoming a PriusChat Sponsor, which allows for greater visibility within the Prius community, please visit our Sponsor Information page.

This policy is not in effect obviously for privately-owned items that can be sold or traded in the Private Sales Forum.

Only one car per advertisement thread will be allowed.

If you have any questions, please email me at Danny@priuschat.com for further information.

If you don't have any questions about posting an Automotive Advertisement thread on PriusChat, then please visit our Online Payment Page to pay via credit card. To pay via check or money order, please contact me for payment information.

Wondering why you should post your dealership's car on PriusChat?

The average time for the sale of a 2004 Prius posted here on PC has been less than 30 minutes. In less than 30 minutes, you can have a buyer that is willing to travel thousands of miles to purchasefor your car.

Dealer Automotive For Sale posts must follow the following guidelines or will be deleted by a Moderator - you do not get a refund of your money, or a 2nd chance to repost it. Follow these guidelines or lose your cash...

This is a private sale, not a commerical sale.

Oh, I apologize - Private Sales you may post in this forum at no fee. Please be sure to include as much information as possible about the car you are selling.

Sorry for the confusion.

Now back to the original question: How do I do place the ad? I am a novice to chat rooms and don't know how to navigate my way around them.

Thanks for your help.

How do I do place the ad?

I suggest the following:

1. Log in as usual.

2. Click on "Private Sales" (the Private Sales forum).

3. Click "New Topic".

4. In the "Subject" line, put the year, color, package, and mileage and/or asking price. Example: "2004 Black #7 For Sale, 8000 miles, $22,000".

5. In the "Description of your topic" line, put "Private Sale of [model year] Prius".

6. In the body of your post, include as much information as possible (e.g., condition of car, location, contact information, interior color, any optional or special equipment, the date you purchased the car, reason for sale, etc.).

7. Click the "Preview" button. Check your message to make sure it is accurate.

8. Click the "Submit" button. Check to make sure your message has been posted and appears in the forum. Again, check your message for accuracy.
