Please familiarize yourself with the following rules and guidelines to ensure a safe and satisfactory trading experience within our community:

Pledge Membership Requirement: In order to list a watch for sale in the Member Sales Area, forum members must be Pledge Members. Please ensure you meet the membership requirements before posting.
Complete and Accurate Listings: Each listing must include clear pictures of the actual item being sold, along with a detailed description, including the asking price, shipping information, and any relevant charges. Ensure that the item being offered is legally owned and in your possession at the time of listing.
One Item per Listing: Each listing should only feature one item for sale. Multiple listings or repeated threads for the same item will be removed.
Transparency and Disclosure: Any modifications or non-original components of the watch must be disclosed, such as dial or hand set changes, diamond bezels, or dials.
WTS, WTB, and WTT Listings: Use the appropriate acronyms to indicate your intention in the title of your post. WTS (Want to Sell) should include a description, picture, and price details. WTB (Want to Buy) should include a description and the name of the desired watch. WTT (Sell or Trade) should include a clear picture, description, price, and trade options.

Completion of Transactions: After a successful transaction, it is recommended that the seller or buyer posts a message confirming the completion of the transaction.
Forum Permissions and Rules: Please ensure you meet the specific rules and requirements outlined for posting items for sale on WTC. Failure to comply may result in the removal of the thread or limitations on posting in the Sales Board.
Scammers & Common Sense: It is crucial to exercise caution when engaging in transactions. While there are many reputable members on WTC, it is essential to protect yourself from potential scammers. Here are some questions to consider:Trust: Can you trust the seller/buyer completely? Building trust takes time, and it’s essential to verify the credibility of the other party before proceeding.
References: Are the references provided by the other party genuine andreliable? Be cautious of multiple references from the same person, as it could be an attempt to deceive.
Payment Methods: Carefully consider the payment method used for the transaction. Evaluate whether it provides protection in case of a dispute or fraudulent activity. It’s best to ask these questions before engaging in a transaction to avoid potential risks.
Risk Assessment: Assess whether you can afford to lose the cash or item being exchanged. While most members are trustworthy, there is always a possibility of encountering dishonest individuals. Err on the side of caution and prioritize your own security.
If you are not completely satisfied or have any doubts about a transaction, it is advisable to walk away. Let the other party take the risk, and prioritize your own peace of mind and security.Please note that Watch Trade Circle (WTC) does not involve itself in transactions between members. It is the responsibility of both the buyer and seller to conduct themselves in an honorable and timely manner.
Remember, your safety and security are paramount. Always exercise caution, perform due diligence, and trust your instincts when participating in buying, selling, or trading activities.
