Etiquette on How to List BST and Request Want Lists -- from a new member

Hi, at CCF my handle is shantiom. Here, my activity is just now developing. I am interested to sell coins that I hope to get on consignment from a dealer. I have not posted a BST here before. On CCF, you need 250 posts before you can BST, is there a threshold requirement here also? As the subject heading suggests, I want to participate in the right way, so if there is a post on best practices, I would appreciate your generosity and time to direct me to an earlier post or thread.
Thank you.

There are no post count requirements as far as I know. If you have a low post count, plan on being required to ship the coin before getting paid. We've had cases of low post count scammers selling coins here and not shipping them after getting paid for them.

Besides the forum rules that are at the top of the threads, there is another unwritten rule that most everyone follows. Keep For Sale and Want posts to one per day and only bump them once per day. Combine if at all possible.
We sometimes have people flood this forum with multiple posts per day - each with one item - and then we all have to wade it. Not particularly courteous to those that make it easier to scan the items.
This is a great resource - I have bought and sold quite a few items here over the years.

It's a handy part of the forum.
Welcome!
And kudos for asking instead of assuming.
