The forum has been a bit out of sorts for a while, and it is time that stops. Therefore, the rules have been tightened. Please read them.
There will be no trading of illegal contraband or weapons on this forum. Anyone found trading in illegal substances will be banned immediately.
Any weapon (other than a paint gun) is not allowed to be traded that includes BB guns.
After you have finished a trade make sure you
lock the thread (using the
LOCK TOPIC-button) so that they do not clutter up the boards, and people still think things are up for grabs.
Any posts not confirming to the rules
will be deleted without prior warning.
- The subject-line has to include the area where you are looking to trade, sell or buy. If you do not specify you are signalling that you are trading worldwide.
- The subject-line also has to include usable information about what you are selling/buying/trading.
- The body of the message has to include a list of goods you are selling/trading/buying. Never post "some ork stuff". Be detailed.
- If you are selling you have to include an asking-price. Without exception. Never post "make me an offer". Posting a percentage of a retail-price is, I am sad to say, not enough either. You need to simply post the cost, exactly.
- Posting pictures is appreciated, but not strictly necessary.
- Posting where one can find references about you is appreciated.
- You should not start a trade (especially in cash) and then break the deal at the last minute, without a good reason.
Below are some examples

This below is an example of a post that would immediately get
deleted.
Have some orks, like 20 warriors and a vehicle. Looking for cash. Make me an offer.

Regarding trading armies of points values, be aware that armies of the same points values cost differently in money. Also be aware that one of the armies might have the maximum amount of wargear possible, to try and cheat the other out of models. 40konline will take no responsibility for trades in this way. We do, however, suggest you trade armies on how much the cost, in money, rather than points. If you are posting an interest in a trade point for post make sure you post a detailed list and get one back, so that you know what you are getting yourself into.
An added note; please do not post eBay-ads if you have a postcount of less than 50. It will get deleted. This is to prevent people from forming accounts, posting their ad, and then leaving again. Thank you. - Rasmus
