Regarding BUY and SELL section!!!!
« on: January 12, 2012, 03:39:14 PM »

Why is it so difficult to say (add or..) after you post:
your item/s
your prices
YOUR FRICKEN location!!!!!!
(Chilliwack, Van., BBy, Delta, Surrey, Your mamma's house, or where you could be met?
I don't need an address but for some deals I'd travel from Vancouver.
For other things I wouldn't waste the gas unless it was close.
If you want to sell you gotta help the potential buyer.
The extra posts seem like a SPY GAME.
I've past on deals before (and passed on passing them on) just because of all the extra B.S.
Not everyone does this but the B S forum has become quite trying with the (psuedo)retailers weighing and adding to the mix.

Just my thoughts.....

I made a post with my tips on how to create a good buy and sell thread to help reduce thread clutter and sell your gear quicker. Most people are either too stupid or too lazy to include the information buyers want to know. I've just stopped caring.

I know you used to care;
I just throw out a reminder for those that feel they have to bump everyday thinking they're in EBAY land.

ALSO! PICTURES! It really isnt NECESSARY, but it will help your items sell faster and give people who arent actually looking for that item, to see something they may want to buy. Pictures are always appreciated.

Also another one of my tips. I really don't think anyone read that thread.

I will say I did read your thread. I just wanted to add to this thread. And I specifically said pictures as that is what irks me most.

Might I add that you committed to buying something and then backed out. Bit of a hypocrit aren't we  :D

How soon we forget  ;)
