They're coming up a lot, and many are being locked because they are (or are turning into) sale threads.

So, just to clarify what is okay to post in this forum, and what should be in the HM....

NOT APPROPRIATE:
- "I have ____, I want to sell for ____. Any takers?" or even "Anyone interested at that price?"
- "I have ____ and don't want them anymore/they don't fit me/I need money. Any interest?"

You will find someone who is interested, so put them in HM! These are just sale threads without the required pictures. I know many don't want to go through the hassle of posting pictures, but the reason that this is required is because pictures are key in determining authenticity. So please post your sales in HM with the required pics!

There are some cases however where it would be appropriate to post an "any interest" thread in this forum.

APPROPRIATE:
- "I'm considering selling my ______. What is an appropriate asking price?" This could easily turn into a sale thread, but is okay as long as you're only trying to find out the value of them, NOT trying to find a buyer. Even better would be to word this one as "What do you think a pair of ____ are worth?"
- This is borderline, but I think it's acceptable.... Ex. "I have a pair of glyercine roths that I cut into shorts and then bleached. I know it was stupid, but do you think there would be anyone out there that would be interested in buying them from me if I were to put them up on eBay or in HM?" --- DO NOT seek out a buyer in this thread, just ask people's opinions on whether they think others may buy them. Where it is a geniune question as to whether it is possible to find a buyer or not.



Play by the rules kids, and it's more fun for everybody

Thank you for this! I know I waited for a couple of pairs to jeans to show up in HM after a thread like that and LOW AND BEHOLD, they never did!

yeah honestly I don't understand "feeler" threads. Either try to sell them or don't?? I don't get it! Just post in HMall if they sell they sell, if they don't, they don't. It's not like we're paying money for listings.

Thanks for posting this Avani, it was bugging me too.

Avani, thanks for the clarification. This was really bugging me too since it can easily be construed as pre-advertising and not putting in the effort to put up a listing in HM, and more or less inadvertently selling outside of HM. It's unfair to sellers who sell in HM because they don't get any extra exposure beyond that section of HF. Anyways, happy buying and selling to everyone.
