PLEASE
READ THE FOLLOWING TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR UPLOADING YOUR ADVERTS.
TAKE THE HASSLE OUT OF WAITING FOR YOUR VW ADS
TO UPLOADED BY DOING IT YOURSELF.
General Issues
Adverts will run 30 days on the site, after which they will be
deactivated. If you wish to reactivate them, you will be able to do so
from the members area, by paying for the activation fee once again.
Posting Text ads on the Beetle/Camper/Other VW Spares, categories is free of
charge, (there is a small fee of 20p for the 1st picture uploaded,
additional photos after that are just 10p) as long as only part ads are submitted in these categories. If
ads with complete cars are entered in the spares categories, they will
be deleted by the webmaster.
Text adverts in the following categories VW's wanted, stolen VW's, Swap shop, Lost VW's, & wanted archive
are FREE to post text ads. (there is a small fee of 20p for the 1st
picture uploaded, additional photos after that are just 10p) But if the asking price is placed in the swap shop
section, your advert will be deleted by the webmaster.
Searching
By clicking on the “Search” button, you will be redirected to a
search page. You can select the category, the model, a year range or a
price range, and also enter keywords that would match your wanted
vehicle. The keywords are compared to the car’s title and description.
All these fields are optional.
Browsing
You can browse through the vehicle categories, either by clicking on the
“Browse” link, or by clicking on one of the categories links located
between the “Browse” link and the “Submit your ad” button. With
category browsing, you will be shown all the vehicles in that category.
Categories
The vehicles are separated in different categories, which can have
subcategories on their own. This feature was made to ease the process of
searching for vehicles on the VolksWest site.
Submit an ad
In order to submit an ad, a user will first have to register. After you
have completed the registration page, you will be redirected to the ad
submission page, where you will be able to choose which type of ad you
want to submit (photo or text), in which category you want it to appear,
and you will be able to enter the vehicle’s details, along with one
main photo, in case the ad is a photo ad. You can also choose to feature
your ad on the main page, which will cost an extra fee of £5.
After you have completed this step, you will be redirected to PayPal,
where you will pay for the ad, (Please note you must be able to pay
people with PayPal) and if the payment is confirmed, the ad
is activated instantly. If you encounter any problems with the ad’s
activation, please contact me at shane@volkswest.co.uk,
specifying your username on VolksWest.
Text ads
Text ads are simple ads, and can be only featured on the home page,
under the “Featured text ads” menu. There is a charge of £2 for
this service.
Photo ads
Photo ads can be submitted by default with one man photo, and if the
“feature your ad” option is chosen, they will be featured both on
the main page, and on the category page. There is a charge of £5 for
this service. For an extra fee, there can be
uploaded up to three extra photos for the vehicle.
Additional photos
The additional photos option appears on the members area, next to each
ad. This feature can be activated for photo ads only, and an extra fee
must be paid in order to add additional photos. Attention! If this
feature is activated but the fee is not paid, then the vehicle for which
this feature was applied will be inactive until the payment is
confirmed. If you have any additional questions, contact me at shane@volkswest.co.uk
Members area
Registered users have access to the members area from where they can
modify an ad’s details, add additional photos, or submit new ads.
Also, from here, they can even account balances for their ads, and
activate/deactivate or delete ads.
