Guidelines for posting items for discussion

Hi Guys and Gals, just a few things to include when posting items up for discussion:

• Title of listing as title of thread (unless there are multiple items)
• A link to the listing or site.
• The sellers name or listing number (makes tracking easier)
• Reasons for your concern of authenticity or issues with the item.
• Item description.
• Item photo.


It’s fairly important to pop in the sellers name as previous conversations/threads can easily be found and added to, saves starting new threads and having multiple conversations on the same item. The search function can be found in the forum tools menu on the upper right side on the watchout main page.

And remember there are rules for posting and discussing on watch out, all fairly simple to follow located here - WatchOut - FORUM RULES - Read & Obey

and a big to all for the time and hard work here in Watchout!

If I've left anything out please jump in

Dave.

Great idea Dave.

Any thoughts re the thread title - I am guilty of double posting bad watches because simply scanning thread titles does not always indicate a previously posted "wathc out".

Also maybe your idea should be made a "sticky"..

I usually use the title of the listing for thread title, thats a good idea, even easier to track :-)

I'll add it while I have the chance :-)

A 'sticky' is in order here.

Great idea Dave!

I think photo's are a must,after a listing has been removed,without one, its hard to tell if a scam/fake watch(that you have just found) has already been reported and is infact a relist.
