Announcing A Brand New Buy Sell Auction System!

[halo]

Theres other egg selling sites available, Eggbid, Ebay, I think theres another one or two that Im not familiar with. If you use up your allotment in a month, theres no reason you can't sell eggs in other places.

Ive seen a lot of people list eggs here, and when they didnt sell, switch over to Ebay. Im sure this site is the first choice because its free, but theres no reason why you can't utilize other sites for your excess eggs, over and above your allottment here.

Even though I do not like the limit that does kind of seem like cheating. If to many people do that they will have to make a rule about not closing your auctions.

It is cheating and will be dealt with accordingly.

This was the reply I got from Nifty, so why the different answer from you, not tryin to sound rude just curious??? I dont plane to abuse it but closeing an auction here or there shouldn't hurt anything. Also closeing one if you have posted it wrong.

If you close your auction a few mins before it ends (if it dosen't have any bidders) it will not count against you

Even though I do not like the limit that does kind of seem like cheating. If to many people do that they will have to make a rule about not closing your auctions.

I asked nifty earlier in this post and he informed me it would be ok, as long as its not abused, so closeing an auction here and there shouldn't hurt. Here is the question and reply

haha... we can always count on our smart members to find loopholes.

Honestly, as long as it isn't abused, it should be okay. You loose out on using the new feedback section, and you can't always control if someone hits Buy It Now or not... but sure, give it a try.

Again, we're doing this stuff to help the community (buyers and sellers) in the long run, not to penalize anybody or slow down our amazing progress.

Purposefully setting out to subvert the system is cheating - I know Rob feels the same way. Please, let's keep these discussions progressive towards making this new system work.

Hmm nifty just said a few post up that closing as long as no bidders was ok? Now it is cheating and will be dealt with. Sheesh that is a very friendly post.

I personally sale eggs on here because of the atmosphere not that you pay else where. I use eggbid, ebay and craiglist, but I like to sale on here more for the simple fact I feel like everyone is like "family" and want to offer to them first. I dont have a problem with the new system, just the limit. As of right now All I know is I'm limited to 10 acutions and as of this moment we have not heard the solution to the ones that sale more than 10. I dont want to have to use the other sites more, I feel like this is my Base, my home!

I wear my feelings on my sleeves sometimes I know but that one kinda hurt

I know I will probably sell more than 10 things during a normal month when they start laying again.

Also my decals are more of a custom order type of thingy....... it's a little confusing how to do those as there is 7 day limit.

Yeah hurt me too!

So if someone is wanting an egg tester then where would that be advertised? I do enjoy testing eggs for ppl when I get the chance.

Since this is turning into a site bashing, this will remain locked until Rob gets here to catch up and address things.
