**** PCApex's Buying, Selling & Trading Tips. Other Trading Tips

All people interested in trading should get a Heatware account (www.heatware.com). Heatware is a free service that allows traders to leave comments for each other about their trading practices. The feedback can then be used for references when entering other trades. For reference, my heat can be viewed here ( http://www.heatware.com/eval.php?id=18523 ).
Heatware is very useful, but can be faked. Always check that the Heatware account is tagged to the same e-mail as the forum trader you are dealing with.
Also, send the Heatware address an e-mail ensuring that they are selling the item in question. Please leave each other heat (good or bad) at the completion of a trade, so that others can be reassured (or warned) by your experience.

Nobody wants to get ripped off (trolled). The question inevitably comes up, who is going to pay/ship first. Well, generally people who are new to the forums (and lack heat) should be prepared to ship first. If they are not prepared to do so, don't trade with them. No need to flame them or berate them, just don't trade. They will soon learn that trust is gained in baby steps. Always get the name, address, and phone number of the other party in any trade of any significant value. Don't be afraid to call the number and ensure it is legit. Speaking of trolls, everyone should visit www.trollhunters.com. View their extensive list of known bad traders. It is kept reasonably up to date. Always check that your prospective seller is absent from their less than distinguished list. If a deal "doesn't feel right", don't enter into it. You can also check out PCApex's Troll & Bad Trader List. Conduct your trades in a professional manner. Exceptional communication, fast payment / shipping, and good packaging make for happy traders. Pretty simple right? Thank you, and happy trading! Thank you Putwig for all your work on these rules.
