Dibs

Could some one please explain how the "dibs" system works please. Does it work in the thread of a forsale item ,via pm or a combination of both. I would say at the moment its a make it up as you go.
Either way is ok as long as its a transparent system and not miss leading.

Simply, if someone is selling something (subject to the For Sale/Wanted Rules ) and someone wants to buy, they usually post "1st Dibs" post to register their interest. Its really up to the seller though ultimately.

I don't think making 1st dib offers to buy by PM is good, because its not open for all to see.

There's no policy on "dibs" - it's generally used by someone to publicly express interest in something for sale. What happens via PM/email is obviously not seen, and what the seller decides to do is up to them.

Can't see how there is any way of it being misleading or needing to be more transparent than openly stating your interest Confused 06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti
