Car seat swap forum

I would like to sell a car seat on the swap board. It looks like I can donate $ to car-seat.org and then have access to the swap. But, how much do I have to donate and do I just click the link at the bottom of the page to do it? I am a little confused! Thanks!

ETA: It looks like I can become a Car-Seat.org supporter ($6 for 6 months) and have access to it?

Here the donation levels are discussed and explained :)

Members will now find three levels of subscriptions available in their User CP under the Paid Subscriptions section. Subscriptions can be paid from within the forums using Paypal or using a credit card through the Paypal service. For most Paypal payments made from within the forums, the subscription should begin automatically within minutes of a completed transaction (eChecks and certain other types of Paypal transfers may take a few business days before Paypal considers them completed). You may also arrange to mail a US Postal Service Money Order by contacting me via Private message. Donations will be used entirely to pay the costs associated with the websites, forums and chat room. They are NOT tax deductible. They are considered gifts and no goods or services are provided in return.

Donation Levels

1) The first level of subscription is the Car-Seat.Org Supporter. The cost is $3.00 for 2 months or $6.00 for 6 months. Supporters who are currently in the Member usergroup will gain some additional features, such as slightly increased private mailbox size, image sizes, attachment size and access to the Carseat Swap forum. Supporters will essentially get most all the features of the Senior Community Member usergroup except that they will not have access to the Senior Community Member forum or chat room. So, Senior Community Members who kindly donate at this level receive only an increased private message mailbox size (200) and the option to select a new title (Car-Seat.Org Supporter). Even for those techs and senior members who don't gain many new features, donations at this level are still a big help for offsetting rising costs of operating the forums! Supporter donations are personal gifts, no goods or services are provided in return. They are non-refundable and no credit will be given for forum downtime or other issues, sorry!

2) The second level of subscription is the Car-Seat.Org Benefactor. The donation is $12 for 3 months or $18 for 6 months. Benefactors who are currently in the Member, Senior Community Member and Technical Professionals usergroups will all gain some minor additional features, such as slightly increased private mailbox size (250), image and attachment size and storage room. Benefactors gain all the features of the CPS Guru usergroup, including access to Carseat Swap, the Senior Community Member private forum and live Chat Room, plus read-only access to the Technical Professionals forum. Benefactors may also use animated profile pictures, animated avatars and see who left them reputation comments! The Car-Seat.Org Benefactor title will also be an option in your User CP. Benefactor donations are personal gifts, no goods or services are provided in return. They are non-refundable and no credit will be given for forum downtime or other issues, sorry!

3) The third level of subscription is the Car-Seat.Org Sponsor. The donation is $24 for 3 months or $48 for 6 months. A Sponsor will gain the same benefits as Car-Seat.Org Benefactors plus a Sponsor title and listing in the "Forum Leaders" webpage. The main difference is that Sponsors will be permitted to include limited commercial content in their signatures and posts. Specifically, a single, simple text link to their personal business or corporation will be allowed in their signature. In addition, they will be able to post about their child safety or children's gear related business and products in the new Sponsors sub-forum of the Strollers, Travel Systems and Gear forum. They will also be allowed to use a logo in their profile picture, but not in signature images or avatars. Other forums of advertising are not permitted. All advertising will be subject to moderator's discretion and will be removed if it exceeds the guidelines or is considered spam or inappropriate. Donations at this level are also personal gifts, no goods or services are provided in return. They are non-refundable and no credit will be given for forum downtime or other issues, sorry!

So it looks like you can donate at a supporter level and have access to the Swap forum.

You have to be a senior community member. If you haven't reached that by the time registeregd, posts and reputation minimums, then you need to donate at benefactor level or higher.
