Buy & Sell

[greenpanda]

Sorry, I got a really noob question and feel free to move my post if its in the wrong section.

I bought a graphics card from OCUK that came with some free games I want to sell the codes for.

I believe that there is a section in the forum for members to sell and buy but I can't seem to find it.

I already have over 100 posts and I been here for 10 months. Do I need to be here for a longer time to qualify to sell second hand stuff?

Really don't want to go the ebay route as it is a lot of hassle. Any other suggestions?

you need 1000 posts.

From the FAQ:

Members Market?
The members market is provided as a free service to active and contributing forum members. OcUK are not liable for any deals that are done in the Members Market, you are free to buy and sell at your own risk. Please read the rules of the Members Market before you proceed to make your first sale.

Access to the Members Market forum requires two things. Firstly, you will need to have over 1000 posts and have been signed up for at least 180 days. Please note that this does not mean you spam the forums simply to increase your posts, as this action will result in posts being deducted, and if you continue this behaviour, your account will eventually be banned/suspended. Once you reach 1000 posts, you will need to activate your trust.The Trust system is for Members Market feedback only and not to be used for general user comments. Abusing the trust system will not be tolerated and such abuse will result in your account being suspended/ banned. Trust activation is either found in your UserCP, or you can press the trust button that appears at the bottom of all your posts.

Once you satisfy both of these criteria, Members Market access will be granted within 24hrs. Please do not post on the forums asking why you cannot access the members market, if you have any queries, email one of the forum Dons/Admins. The contact addresses are available in the FAQ. There is no buying, or selling allowed outside of the Members Market.

The criteria was changed earlier in the year (Actually I think was Jan ) so those people got in before the change.

It used to be something like 300 posts and 3 months membership OR 100 posts and a years membership. As RJC pointed out, they changed the rules earlier in the year, its a good thing IMO.
