This is my suggestion for how the rules could be clearer:
Additional Rules for the Classifieds
The Fretboard is not responsible for transactions - the buyer and seller are. Be careful and be sensible. PayPal Gift (PPG) is for use between trusted parties.
These rules apply in addition to our standard forum rules.
Posters that breach these rules will have their adverts deleted and may have their access to the emporium removed. Repeat/severe infringements may lead to a complete ban from the site.
Here are some general guidelines for the emporium:
The Classifieds are intended for personal use. If you are a business/dealer contact me to discuss how who could get involved here.

I think the more specific problem here is that the vast majority of the emporium rules are the same as every other forum-based classifieds system but the "don't delete your content" one is both different to the norm (some forums actively encourage you to delete sold stuff) and non-obvious (why can't I delete something I created?).
I don't know if its technologically feasible but if the mods are able to send a (short) PM to every user saying "Look, lots of people are falling foul of this rule, please don't delete your stuff because..." I suspect it might help.
