I just printed a set of Mendel Parts!

Here is a photo of the parts.

Here is a link to my RepRap forum profile and posting history, so that you know that I'm not a scammer.

Here is a link to my RepRap wiki user page so you can see everything I've designed and uploaded.

Please email with your bid to buy these Mendel parts. This auction or sale is open until next week.

Regards,
Example Seller

Q: I noticed people putting their name and date in the photos. Is this something I need to do to get sales or am I just being too particular?

A1: It's an anti-scam measure. It usually helps.

A2: There's been one or two cases of people showing pictures of other people's parts and claiming they're selling them. They then take the money and run.

We've had 1-2 attempts, but no successful ones. I think.
Mandating "photo with name and date on sheet of paper" aka "placematting" would help.

Since we're all reprap developers here, please (very politetly) flag/educate new folk who've forgotten to placemat their pieces, eh?
