| Adding Photos |
Sellers may enhance their listings with pictures. While posting an item for sale, go to the

photo’s that help differentiate your items from others. Many buyers like to see a small
photo of the Model and Serial number tags that are on most radios. There is no charge for
adding photos to your listings. If you already have items listed and want to add photos,
merely log into “My Account”, go to “View Postings” and select “edit”.
