I posted some Nike shirts, a total of 8 shirts ( 2 med, 2large, 2 XL and 2 XXL) the potential buyer is n structured to be buying 2 shirts at a time, because of shipping costs and the  next to nothing margin.

It was deleted, help me out here I was trying to follow the rules, I closed a previous sale listed before this one, I have plenty of posts, used my own photos that are watermarked and again 8 shirts

What did I do wrong?

[spitfisher]

Is it customary to be told/informed of why an ad was deleted?  I just wish to follow the rules, looking for a brief answer s that I do not repeat the listing......

If someone is deleting ads wouldn't that same person have an idea why?I am trying to go thru the proper channels to find out why.

The BST is for personal use only.

You have 8 of the same exact shirts in 4 different sizes and liquidation of inventory in bulk is not allowed.  Please PM Gxgolfer if you'd like to explore paid opportunities in order to use the Classifieds for commercial use.

Hope that helps.

Any answer would have helped, so yes it did help. I have sold in the very same manner before dozens of times, so it comes as somewhat of a surprise- unless its a rule that has come up in the past month or so. I am not a retailer so I guess It never crossed my mind that I was selling in bulk, liquidating inventory. I say this because I've have seen other members sell 2,3,4 even as many as 6 dozen Titleist prov1. ( let alone the amount of sleeves)

But if thats the rules going forward thats the rules, I'll make the necessary correction on my end and in the future. Thanks

As you know, the mod's aren't required to give an answer for deletion so that's cool that you got one.  Other people got away with it because they weren't caught or reported - doesn't make it right though.

and yet there's a seller who has sold like 6 "different" cmb 3 iron heads over the past 30 days... closes ads and opens another one hours later and continually abuses BST rules in such a manner, but nothing's done, even when reported.

Go figure.
