Ideas for Buy/Sell/Trade rules
Ideas for Buy/Sell/Trade rules
Ideas for rules:
1. no underbidding on the sell board. if you want to sell a print for less than a person who is already listing it for, so long as their post remains on the front page, you man not offer it for less. if you want to do this, use ebay or some other auction site.
2. no overbidding in the buy board. if you want to buy the same print for more money, wait until the first person's bid has left the front page, then you may make your own post.
3. All buying / selling / trading is done at the risk of the people involved in the transaction. The Giant and its affiliates are not responsible for any part of these transactions.
extra house rules that are funnay:
4. Trading rulez. If you want to trade things, you're cool.
5. Flippers should be spat upon. Someone that is selling 5x Obey Dunny signed should be hit in the head with a shovel. Unless they are selling them for $10 each. Then they will be given hugs.
More real rules:
6. Keep hate out of the Supply and Demand boards. If you want to give props to someone who is SELLING a sweet print, do it. Try to avoid giving props to someone who is trying to buy something. It tends to drive the price up. Get it? Good.
7. It is assumed that all prints / stickers / toys / etc are in MINT to NEAR MINT condition. If they have dents, major flaws, etc, be sure to NOTE THAT.

I like um.
You should make some announcements in the forums with rules. And put some stuff about the ebay.
Also, if you get a chance, can you do a wiki entry for dunny. I figured you probably know more about them than me or anyone else here.
I really hate PMs. Please just email me.

Actually wait no, I disagree with that. Linking to ebay auctions is silly. Why would we even have a buy sell board if it was all ebay? There's no point in coming here to look at links to ebay when someone could just go to ebay in the first place.
The way the buy sell boards work in other forums is like this: no auctions. It's buy it for this price or sell it for this price, flat. People use things like ebay or Heat: http://www.heatware.com/eval.php?id=15234 if people are worried about getting scammed. It works. It really really works.

i agree that using ebay for transactions should be the users' choice. i mean, it is anyway, because there is no way we can enforce that. we should definitely encourage people to use ebay (or that other place) for safety reasons, but there is no reason why people shouldn't just be able to buy/sell/trade on their own.
i'm proud to be the shepherd of this herd of sharks.
But maybe somebody hasn't checked eBay yet but comes here and sees that a print that they wanted is finally up on eBay. I see no reason that putting a link to eBay here should be a "no-no". That's dumb. If somebody wants to advertise here for an eBay auction, more power to them... as long as it's Obey-related.
