    Would this violate the forum rules.

    I'm considering putting up an item for trade. Would entertaining cash offers be against the rules, it wouldn't be auction style if I got an offer I liked it would be accepted with no bidding.

    This sounds just the same as offering an item for sale.
    You should place an amount on it, so that people get an idea,
    then state that you are willing to trade OBO (or best offer).
    If someone offers you something that you like, tell them to
    put "I'll take it", and its sold......

    Of course I don't "think" this is against forum rules, but I'm no
    moderator.... just going from my gut feeling, and things that I
    have seen here before... CHEERS

    The rule is -
    3. Items listed in the marketplace should be listed with a selling price. No auction-style posts, no bidding on items, or linking to auctions.
    So, it's fine to say OBO, as long as there's a stated price that the item can be outright claimed for (or trade conditions).

    Just be sure that if you accept an offer (either sale or trade) from another member that they post the first "I'll Take It" post in the thread. That's the key part.

    I tend to agree (again, not a mod)

    Give a max price, and say you're willing to take offers.

    As stayed any PayPal account but it can not be payed through the gift option so just remember to account for pay pal fees.
    Sometimes I like to hike and think, And sometimes I just like to hike.

    Hiking is'ent about waiting for the storm to pass its about learning to hike in the rain.
