Bazaraki.com
Bazaraki.com works like classified ads in a newspaper, but because it's on-line, there are several big advantages:
Your ad will be viewable for four (4) months (and does not end up in the cat litter box ;-).
Your ad can be as short or as long as you like, it will not cost you anything except the time you spend writing it.
You can edit, review or delete your ad whenever you like by loging in to "My Ads".
You can add pictures without additional charges (up to 3 pictures).
YOUR AD IS ON THE INTERNET. Imagine the exposure you create without even leaving your chair!!
How does bazaraki.com work
* if you want to sell something
Click on the link ‘Create Ad’ (top left of the page).
Enter all the necessary fields either from pull down menu’s where available or manually. Fields with a ‘*’ are mandatory. Your email address will only be known to bazaraki.com
If you have some, up-load pictures. It’s a great selling-aid and draws attention.
Tick the ‘webaddress’ option if you have your own site you want to refer to for promoting the article, or the manufacturers website to save your ‘customers’ the trouble of finding it themselves.
Check the sample of your ad and enter the verification code at the bottom.
IMPORTANT - You will now receive an email at your specified email address, with a request to confirm your ad. Click on the weblink provided in the email and your ad is visible for the public to see. If for some reason this procedure fails, the email contains instructions how to do it manually. If you do not receive the email within a few minutes, check your spam box. If still not there contact info@bazaraki.com. Advertisers placing an ad from outside Cyprus may have to wait longer before receiving the activation email. This is due to an extra content scanning procedure. After you activate your ad, you will receive another email with your "My Ads" password. Please save this message for later use. If you happen to misplace the email anyway, simply go to "My Ads" and click on "Forgot your password?". The password will be re-sent to the email address that you used to place your ad with.
Once the ad is placed wait and see what potential buyers offer you via the website, by email or by telephone (if number is provided by you). You can also see how many times your ad has been viewed! No 3rd party will be given your email without you knowing it. Via the website potential buyers can react via email, without your address being shown to them. Replying to the potential buyer can be done via the ‘reply’ link in the email the potential buyer sent you. Agree on the method of payment and pick up or delivery between yourselves.
*If you want to buy something
All you have to do is browse the site to find the object you are looking for, make the seller an offer (via our e-mail service or use the phone number if the seller has published one) and come to an agreement on price and delivery terms. The exchange of the good(s) and payment is arranged between the seller and buyer, we have nothing to do with this. We don't charge commission like some other sites.
My Ads
You can make changes to your ads at any time during the four months. Edit the price, upload new pictures, etc. Simply log in to "'My Ads" (top left). Your password will have been sent to you by email after ad activation. In case you lost the email with the password, there is always the "forgot your password?" option. You will find it when you click on "My Ads". We kindly request you to remove your ad by using "My Ads" if you have been able to sell it. This will ensure a high level of quality and people unnecessarily contacting you.
Searching
Do you only want to see all ads with for example convertible cars in Nicosia? No problem. Just find the search bar at the top of the page and type in ‘convertible car nicosia’ or any combination of types and makes you like. This will help you find what you're looking for quickly if you don’t have the patience to look at all the ads in the particular category.
If there are a lot of ads in a category, simply click on the column heading: region, price, date and it will sort accordingly.
Pictures
Uploading pictures with your classified ad is free. You can upload up to three (3) pictures per ad. In order to keep the website running smoothly, each picture can not exceed 1024kb in size. Format must be jpg, gif or bmp. Adding a picture increases the number of views exponentially and thus you'll increase your chances on a ‘quick sell’ enormously!
Groups and categories
When placing an ad on the website you will be asked in which category you would like it to be (i.e. ‘cars’). We strongly advise you to place your ad in the most sensible category in order to attract as many people to your ad as possible. For each ad you place you can select only one category and sub-category. To be in more than one category you will have to create a new ad.
To maintain a high standard of clarity and easy browsing for everyone, we reserve the right to re-locate your ad in another group or category if we feel this is necessary for above mentioned reasons. This benefits you as much as everyone else. We also reserve the right to change the number of list locations or the name of groups and categories to improve user-friendliness.
If you're missing a category...please e-mail us info@bazaraki.com. We highly appreciate any thoughts for improvement from your side in order to fit our website to your needs.
Language – Greek and English
Bazaraki.com is bi-langual, Greek or English! It's up to you which language you'd like to place your ad in. Please note that if you'd like to place your ad in both languages, you have to create one for the English database and one for the Greek database. This is necessary to avoid seeing Greek ads while you're English speaking, and vice-versa.
Duration of ad
After activation by email, your ad will be online for four (4) months, after which it will be automatically removed (notification will be sent to your email). Feel free to place the ad again if it didn't sell. After two (2) months you will also receive an email with an optional link to delete the ad. To avoid other people unneccessarily contacting you and to keep the quality level of the ads high, we kindly request you to remove your ad (log in to 'My Ads') if you have been able to sell your product prior to this date. Rates
Placing a classified ad (with or without pictures) is completely free of charge!! In the future, "permanent" classfied ads, some categories like services or ads containing a web link might be charged a minimal amount. You'll be able to pay on-line for your convenience of course. Exact rates will be published when applicable.
If you wish to advertise your banner in any category or on the main page, you can contact marketing@bazaraki.com for the very reasonable rates.
What we do not allow
Bazaraki.com does not like anyone to sell off their mother-in-law or placement of ads that are in any sense illegal, offensive or sexual in nature (see "forbidden goods"). There are already plenty of websites serving such needs. All ads are screened by our software and manually (even an extra scanning procedure for ads being placed from outside Cyprus). If for some reason we've missed one and you feel that it should not be there, kindly let us know by clicking on the "Report" button located at the bottom right of every ad! Important message
Buying and selling through the Internet is safe, cheap and a lot of fun. It is however important to use your common sense. Be careful if you are offered more than your asking price, if the potential buyer is located abroad, or if someone pays with a cheque (it takes a few days for the bank to clear the cheque). We advice you to never use Western Union, HSBC bank, BidPay or MoneyGram if you are doing business with an unknown party. We also advice you to not ship your goods abroad.
