FAQs
Below you will find a list of frequently asked questions with answers. If you have a question that is not answered below, please contact us.
|
Do I have to register to create listings?
Yes. A current BMW MOA membership is required to list items. However, both members and guests can browse the marketplace. To list an item for sale, login with your MOA username and password. Not a member yet? JOIN NOW. |
How do I stop my listing from running?
To end a current listing, click "My Account" at the top of any page. Then click "listings" and the "stop" button to the left of any ad that you want to cancel. |
Where should my item be listed?
The Marketplace is most effective when items are categorized correctly. Please take a moment to identify the best category to describe your item. The segment categories (Dual sport, sport, supersport, etc.) should be reserved for BMW motorcycles. Parts
& accessories, gear, other brands and other motorcycles should be listed in the labeled categories and not in the motorcycle segment categories. Want ads should also be listed in the appropriate sections for motorcycle, parts or gear.
|
How much do listings cost?
The Member Marketplace is a free service for BMW MOA members. There are no fees to list, buy or sell items in the Marketplace. |
How long does a listing run?
Listings are active for 120 days and can be renewed from the "listings" tab on your "My Account" page. |
I don't want my name, phone number or email address to appear on your site. What should I do?
To hide all of your personal information when creating a listing, just do the following:
1. Answer "NO" to the question "Include Profile with Listing"
2. Do not enter your street address or phone number in the listing description.
Buyers interested in your listing will be able to contact you via anonymous email using the "Contact Advertiser" link on the site. The email address you enter for a listing is NOT shown on the site - it is used by the site to route anonymous contact requests to your email without making your email address visible to others.
|
If all my information is private, how can a buyer contact me?
When your ad appears, instead of showing your contact information the following appears: "This seller has chosen to remain private. You may contact this seller via anonymous email by clicking here." The prospective buyer completes an on-line form and the system sends you an email without revealing your information to the prospective buyer. |
What is your privacy policy?
See the PRIVACY POLICY for details. |
How much does it cost to register?
A regular BMW MOA membership is only $49 per year. |
Do I have to register to use the site?
Registration is not necessary to browse or search ads. You should still register, to save time, as the site will remember various preferences for you. If you want to create ads, you will need to purchase a BMW MOA membership. More information about membership is available on the WHY JOIN page.
