New dealers parts database

There have been various issues with people trying to sell items 'commercially' on the site and we took them down until we had a system in place that they could use and which wouldn't clog up the forums.
 
I'm pleased to say that the new pages and database are now up and I've put some items in there as a demonstration - it's very easy to use.
 
Go to http://www.fordscorpio.co.uk/traders.htm and you will see a list of dealers down the left and categories down the right.
 
By clicking on a dealer you can see lists of everything they sell with description, a photo (click to enlarge) and a price. They can also add the FMC part number if they want to put in the effort. Click the part number to send a message to the dealer about it.
 
Dealers can edit their lists at any time using a very simple set of pages.
 
This costs the dealer 200 quid a year and anyone who is serious about selling parts whould see the benefits - it's probably far less than the Ebay charges that they pay.
 
If it takes off then I will also add a search facility.
 
Regards

Thanks Guys
 
We will just have to see how many people are serious about selling parts Smiley
 
I reckon it's a better deal than Ebay as it is targetted at Scorpio owners and it's a once a year fee regardless of how many items they sell or for how much.

£125.00 is a bit dear for a sunroof motor, but I'll have the foglight for £6.00!!
