40_32_40 - Profile (original) (raw)

Welcome to 40_32_40 - please read the info page before joining.

Wouldn't it be nice if everything you see is the right size?

If all the clothes being auctioned or sold or traded fit you?

So... here it is... a community for selling/trading/discussing size 14-16 (UK or equivalent other sizes) alternative (punk/goth/metal) clothing ONLY. No trendy/chav/fake "designer"/skanky clothing please!

Just makes it easier to buy and sell and trade to the right target group!

This community was created mostly for direct sales between individuals of second-hand, surplus, or original clothing, and not for advertising your business, your website, your online store or your e-bay auctions.

If you are an online retailer and have individual items you wish to sell, that are a size 14-16, posts directly selling such items are ok, but this community is not a general "shopping"/"selling" community for your online retail businesses. Please do not treat is as such.

Posting guidelines:

1. Post only ads or links to auctions, direct sales or trades for CLOTHING which fits a female standard UK size 14 or 16, or foreign equivalent.

2. Please do not post same ads repeatedly, if its a repost - please mark it - and please don't repost more frequently than fortnightly for the same items.

3. All extra pictures should be put under an LJ-cut - including composite pictures. A single picture, no greater than 300x300 will be ok.

4. As a minimum, posts should state the size of the item (with measurements if unusual), the selling price, any shipping costs, payment methods accepted and state/quality of item and location of the item.

For any auctions, please mention ending time and start price or current price at time of posting. Reminder posts for auctions - please just don't. If someone is interested, i'm sure they'll mark the items as watched.

5. Discussions of where to find size 14 or 16 clothing, fitting by different manufacturers, size guides, etc are allowed, of course, and recommendations or reviews of stores and sellers who make well fitting clothes for size 14-16s are great, and useful.

6. Ads for auctions, sales, trades, etc of clothes of other sizes, shoes, hair and hair products, accessories, household objects, bags and kitchen sinks are NOT welcome.

Professional sellers and clothes makers simply here to advertise their online stores are not welcome. Irrelevant links to other auctions and communities are also not welcome. Please don't mess with these basic rules, or you will be ejected... without warning.

7. As the community is primarily UK based, if you are from outside the UK please be sure you are happy to accept higher postage fees, can take payments by paypal and are able to convert sizes and prices to UK equivalents correctly.

Note: You dont have to be a size 14 or 16 to join or post. You DO have to be a member to post. If you think people who are a size 14 or 16 are too fat or too thin, discuss that elsewhere.
