This entry is a how-to on posting a classified ad, but from the perspective of what to include. Hopefully the site you choose to use to post is easy enough to figure out that you can do the rest. If not, then visit http://www.nearbyitems.com (shameless plug) for the ultimate in ease of posting.
What to include:
1. Say what the item is in the title.
2. Describe the item, accurately listing the good and the bad.
3. Use at least one picture, but more is better. Show close-ups of defects.
4. People are curious, they'd like to know why you are selling. If you don't say why in your ad, they will ask you at time of purchase.
Don'ts:
1. Don't try to attract attention by USING ALL CAPS or *** special formatting ***. This is called a "hack".
2. Don't disparage other sellers.
3. Don't state that you're firm on the price. More info on how to price items in a future blog entry.
Hope this helps. Happy posting.
