Flying 15s (and other stuff) for Sale

We really appreciate the regular use of the second hand listing pages and we’ve been working hard to ensure that this is easy to use and gives a quick response.  We’ve added Paypal to enable you to pay by card and it’s great to see you starting to use this feature. 

However we’d like to remind you that a little bit of patience is required with these new features, if you upload an advert it WILL NOT appear immediately even if you have paid by card.  This because a HUMAN, not a computer needs to approve your advert.

We do this to make sure you are not selling your children, personal services or Columbian nose candy as all of these sort of things are illegal and we don’t want our beautiful site spammed. 

So if your advert doesn’t appear immediately, please don’t up load another. It hasn’t appeared because it hasn’t been approved by one of the two or three HUMANS who do this! 

Thanks for listening

The management!

How to post an entry

  1. You need to be Registered on the site and logged in to be able to post an entry.
  2. Ensure that you have paid the fee HERE, otherwise the advert will not be approved and displayed.
  3. Prepare any photos you wish to use for the web. We recommend using http://www.imageoptimizer.net/ for FREE.
    You should as a minimum prepare an image that will appear on the Home page and on Facebook, Landscape orientation at about  approximately the size 1200px (horizontal)  x 600px (vertical) and with the "small file size" option. This is the size Facebook likes and it will make your advert stand out more. You need not worry over getting an exact size as Facebook will deal with this issue.
  4. Ensure you are logged in on the Add a Boat page.
  5. If you use Chrome ensure that you can upload an image without losing all input first! 
    Expand the Image section by clicking on the plus symbol as shown here then you should see  
    If the "Select Images" button does not appear then you will see a jigsaw image; click on this and a message asking you to enable Flash will be displayed. Once you have accepted that, the image will appear. The Upload Folder does not need changing.
  6. Enter the information about your boat or other items for sale (Title & Description).
    If you have created your advert in WORD, please use this feature in the top left menu and select the "paste as Plain Text" option otherwise what you see may not reflect what you intended.
    If you wish to have an image in the body of the text, we can add it in for you or if you feel competent then use the edit window to achieve this.
  7. Copy the first line of the Description to the Summary section near the bottom of the page. This will appear on Facebook and the Home Page.
  8. Upload your image in the Images section. Click the + symbol to expand the image section first if you have not already done this. Use the Select Images button to select an image from your PC. Select a landscape image first if you are adding multiple images. This will appear on the Home Page.
  9. When at the category section you need to select both the Items for Sale main category AND a sub-category in the Organize section below that matches what you have for Sale. They should be highlighted in blue.
    (TIP: hold down the CTRL key in order to be able to select both together).
  10. Finally, when you have entered all the information and your advert is ready to be published click on Publish and the advert will be sent for Approval, please add an expiry date in the date box above these buttons.  If you do not we will add one for you usually 6 - 12 months after the date of publication.  If you require the advert to stay on or be re-submitted please advise us.
    If you click on Update, the advert will only be visible by yourself. This is useful if you wish to come back and change or add information before finally publishing the advert.
