Is the payment & shipping of an item left up to the seller & buyer?

Yes. It should all be agreed upon in a PM before payment is made. Then seller gives a reasonable time product will be shipped and sends tracking info.  
 

if thats what your asking. 
 

For the record i ship within 24 hours and often times same day if deal is done in the AM

@Carolina Golfer 2  thanks....tho, no what I was asking. I was hoping admin would respond about any limits or restrictions about how to pay or how to ship.

@Carolina Golfer 2  in the Classic sub-forum area, a post "TRADING BLOCK" it was asked if any were interested in seeing if we, as vintage club users & collectors, might have a seperate BST sub-bst area to make it easier for us. In the past, any offerings got lost in the madness of BST listings. Admin, after responding, locked the posting down. I continued in the message section as to why and why not...it didn't seem to go over well.

I've read the rules and regulations time and time again over the past couple/3 days.....they make no sense to me - except as a way to make it more expensive for the non-member to list over the long run, it'd be cheaper for the seller to become a member at $35/year & forgo all the fees (at least that's the way it read to me)

So I posted the question....I have a FedEx account & that is the only way I ship. Right now, payment is via USPS Money Order. If I decided to sell or trade thru here, I'd set up a Square account, as I have ablsolutely no trust in PayPal security. the only times my card number has been stolen is after buying something on line that went thru PayPal (I refused to buy directly using PayPal & chose my credit card, not knowing until after the transaction ended that it went thru PayPal anyway).  So I want to know what parameters of payment a seller has....

Ah ok. Had no idea of the subforum idea.   But I can see at least the wondering of the question. 
 

sorry for my BST101 answer to the original post 😬

The classifieds are moderated by the members and mods. The rules state what can be advertised in the ad.

 

Everything else are between members as the site has no liability of a personal transaction between members. 

 

Members and mods responding are the answers. No admin is necessary.

 

The classifieds and its rules were constructed by members and mods. 
 

The WRX classifieds are purposefully restrictive and is not meant for ease of use or outliers.

I'm sorry, but you're not answering my questions...."So I want to know what parameters of payment a seller has....can I use my preferred payment option & my preferred shipper?" Does the WRX admin in the Classified section (I don't really care if you call them moderators, they function as administrators) limit the payment options or do they allow the seller/buyer to use their own methods?

Hmmm....it sure looks to me like he answered all your questions. Prices and terms (including methods of payment) are determined entirely by the buyer and the seller.

[Gxgolfer]

Correct. And most disputes are because people didn’t follow the rules and then ask for help.
