Have you put pics and a price in them? Read over the B/S/T forum rules maybe and see if your posts are matching the rules.

http://www.pbreview.com/forums/showthread.php?t=423877 - here's the bst rules. See if your bst thread is missing something or if it's in the wrong bst section (like a gun for sale under "hoppers" or something).

Actually, where possible, when dealing with items of a higher value - markers for instance - we would like pictures along with a piece of paper with the sellers username on it. Why? It's proof of ownership. Not much of a deterent to scamming I know, but it at least proves that the person selling the item actually has it. With no picture, who knows if the item being sold even exists? Without the username in the picture, who knows whether a posted picture hasn't just been downloaded from Google images?

Basically, posting pictures may seem like a hassle, but it is something we want in order to try and help make things safer for the buyer.

For starters: http://www.pbreview.com/forums/showthread.php?t=431104

That thread was closed because it's not a real sale thread. You posted as much in there. The trading forums are not for people to get marker/gear appraisals. If you don't intend to have a legit sale, don't post.

Appear to be redundant posts, neither of which have pictures and seem very similar to the ion in the thread that you're not selling. If you make a legit sale thread, it will likely be kept up. Be sure to follow the forum rules post pictures and make sure the thread isn't duplicative of previous threads.

The biggest thing is the lack of pictures. If I do not see pictures in the thread, I close it automatically, I don't even care if you have the nicest written sales thread; I'll still close it.
Then the lack of information provided is the other issue. It's not an appealing looking sale thread and it leaves it very open for people to start asking questions in the threads and calls the legitimacy into question.
A lot of the rules I posted are not new ones but they are being enforced very strongly. If you are having trouble making threads there is a sticky on how to make a proper one in the Trading forums, I suggest reading it.
