Default What is a "Sponsored Poster"?

A sponsored poster is a small business or large quantity seller who has paid for the privilege of posting in the RedFlagDeals.com Buy, Sell, and Trade forums. They are bound by the same rules of posting as any other RFD user with the exception of the rule against large quantity sales. RFD does in no way vouch for the legitimacy of the "Sponsored Poster" and normal precautions should be taken when dealing with them. If you would like more information on becoming a "Sponsored Poster" please contact biz@redflagdeals.com

UPDATE: Being a business posting, the second rule that they will be excluded from is the no tax rule. Sponsored posters will be able to charge tax.

Updated - August 17, 2006: Please check out the updated information on being a Sponsored Poster

Who do we contact if we have any problems with the seller? An admin or just post in here?

i think that is a good idea then if ppl are looking for lets say for sure brand new items or something like that they don't have to go searching through the BST section's just to find these sellers they should have there own section

just a little info .... bringing back dead threads really pisses people off , especially if you did it only for attention or to heighten your post count .
