Reasoning
We should have a template to use for the auctions, containing all the common information.
- Brief "about LHS" blurb
- Contact/location (wiki page link?)
- "note whether vehicles can pull up for loading. Also that it is outside congestion zone"
- Source of hardware, auction context
- Feedback from various people, to incorporate in the template text
- Highlight: pickup only. State preferred pickup times (evenings preferred, but essentially 24/7)
Payment options:
- "Require payment via PayPal within x days and collection within y days otherwise you reserve the right to relist without compensation. " (Maybe we need to check "See item description" under payment options)
