The rules:

To help cut down on bandwidth and confusion I've decided to post a few quick rules.
1. In the title say whether the item is "For Sale (FS)", "Wanted to Buy (WTB)", "Wanted to Trade (WTT)", or "For Trade (FT)".
2. If it's only a single item, say the item name in the title. If there are multiple items sum up what is included in the item list.
3. When making an offer, simply send a PM to the starter of the topic and post "PM Sent" under the topic.
4. If you have a list with multiple items please either mark an item as sold or deal pending when that item status exists.
5. Once all the items have been sold, have the topic starter state so in the title and the topic will be deleted to save bandwidth. If the deal falls through just start a new topic.
6. If you can, post pictures of the item. Makes for better trading.
7. No joke threads please.
8. No bumping before 24 hours.
9. Don't post auctions unless they are being sold by you.
10. Be reasonable. Ask fair prices when selling and buying.
11. No off topic posts in a topic.
Rules from Ben
1) No selling of illegal stuff! (Don't push the pirate NOAC or things like that as those ARE gray items)
2) Sales are personal between you and second party and do not involve this website(s) or Ben Heckendorn (me) I shall not be held liable for whatever you do here, nor are any warranties regarding the operation of this forum expressed or implied. In other words - you're on your own!
3) If an item for sale is a TOPIC, have it removed by an Admin after it's sold so it won't clutter up the joint.

If you have a complaint, take it up with your seller. If you'd like to leave feedback on your seller, go here.
Don't involve us in YOUR deals.

^ This.

It even says right in the Trading Post forum description:

(Note: Transactions are not monitored by benheck.com)

Cry, scream, kick your feet, and punch the walls all you want, but the forum staff does not get involved with trade disputes. No trades are endorsed or backed by the admins or moderators of benheck.com, even if you're buying something from Ben himself (in that case it's still between you and him, the forum staff are not involved). This policy is in place to protect the site from any responsibility for trades it has nothing to do with, aside from providing a listing service. Sites like Craigslist have a similar policy.

Any and all trades you arrange on this site are private business between you and your trading partner. This has always been the case for every member of this board. We're not making a special exception just for you.

Work out a solution with the other person. It's your problem.
