Buy / Trade / Sell section , vote now.

[MentaL]

Hi,

An idea was given to us about adding a buy / trade / sell section, this section could be used for anything really, game accounts, items, custom scripts to go with server files or even just junk in your house.

Please vote .

I dont want it assosiated with ebay.

Your call, but how could you ensure no one would be scammed? but i think it's not your obligation though.

You can't ensure anything like this 100%, you can however moderate it.

From experience in other places, it would seem forum staff do not take liability for ANYTHING, rather there is a simple report a trader section next to feedback, and if the proper procedures have been adhered to, that includes filing a case with paypal if possible, then the trader in question will be marked up as a rogue and if the traders 'victim' (strong word) decides (or even if they don't, depending) their local authorities will be informed.

So in reality users would have to provide details like full names, other than that their e-mails are already here, address would probably be given to the other trader if trading in real world items.

Simple. Only allow certain thing that can be verified, used as a purchase. Like with paypal. They PM you their Full Name and Address. If it doesn't match their paypal. Then don't trust em.

I may get this up today.

Also. Don't make any jackasses mod of it lol. Just my 2 cents though. Your forum, your allowed to do what you want.

Here you go, here is what the setup looks like

Buy sell trade feedback.


Feedback is where you leave the feedback to the buyer or seller, helps determine if they are legit or not, also a good way for future buyers or sellers to see the response, such as delivery time, communication and so forth.


List of prefixes and uses;

• Coupon
  • Allot of websites offer discounts or gift-cards, sometimes people do not want to keep these and wish to sell them off at a discounted price, this is what this is for.
• Game account

Pc games/peripherals/hardware, should we use individual tags at the users discretion?

 

[yjlasher22]

Was thinking you could separate it into more sub-sections. Like electronics, consoles, general item, MMO-related stuff...

I want this.
Though I don't expect staff to take part in any of it.(E.g: Taking responsibility for those who have been scammed)

 

[Giro]

Very well made and organized.

Sales between people are not our responsibility but of course we will try and observe to the best of our ability.

Question: Why is this no longer allowed? IMO that would have been the main selling point for the entire 'Marketplace' and was pretty much all I had in mind when I said it would be a good idea. Realistically you will NOT be getting a huge amount of people selling tangible items due to this being an international forum.

IMO, reconsider this and allow the sale of game/online accounts, just make sure you don't claim any liability. Selling "nontransferable" accounts may be against the terms of use, but so are using private server files.

Tangible items will get listed fine, providing users get round to marking their terms clearly (i.e Will post anywhere in UK, UK only,US only etc)


Also, I think the 'buy' sub section could be better worded to 'Wanted' :/:
