Buying and Selling

The GTiR Owners Club has various buying and selling sections that are open to read and post to anybody, as a member who has a post count lower than 30 posts on the Owners Club and forums you will not be able to post a car or parts for sale in the For Sale sections without authority from a member of the mod/admin team. If you do attempt to advertise your car/parts without the necessary post counts, your thread will be deleted and you will receive a gentle reminder of the forum rules. If you attempt to post your items for sale in another forum/section your post/thread will be removed without warning. The For Sale sections are open to use to GTIROC members that have a post count of 30 or above. The GTiR Owners Club holds no responsibility for any Buying and Selling that takes place within the Owners Club. All sales that take place in the "for sale" forums of the GTiR Owners Club are carried out at the seller or buyers own risk; the Moderators and Admin staff of the GTIROC can not be party to any problems that arise between buyers/sellers.

Please read newly added line 16.

The newly edited rules are a direct reaction to recent information theft.
