Announcing A Brand New Buy Sell Auction System!

[Nifty-Chicken]

No announcement just yet, but we'll definitely have something solid in place soon (well in time for Spring busyness) to accommodate those that want to have a lot of listings

cool thanks is there anyway to keep up with the ten right now are the old ones going to delete or is the # post going to go back down when your month is up.

 

[Nifty-Chicken]

The post count is based on a rolling 30 days, so if you were at your limit you simply wait until one of your closed listings becomes 30 days old and another listing will be available for you to use.

I don't like the auction system as it doesn't just go up to the max you would pay when someone bids against you. What you put for your max is what you actually bid even if the next person is $100.00 lower than you.

Right, this system does not support second priced auction / automated bidding. If you know you are willing to pay $xx for something, you should bid that much.

Wish I knew that before. I guess live and learn.

I have had several buyers from BYC, not part of the BSA system but through pm's and orders to me who wish to leave feedback. Is it still okay for them to post here....

Sure hope so! Thanks and have a blessed day.

Yes, that's fine to have them post there, but note: That old format will not be updated or "promoted" since there are a lot of inherent problems with it. We encourage everyone that is selling through BYC to use the new system since it is better organized and the built-in-feedback system is much better organized.

Maybe I have overlooked this detail but is there a way to see that an auction has ended or is closed from the index screen? It is a bummer to see a listing that was posted only hours ago only to learn after clicking on it that the listing has ended due to a "buy now".

 

[Nifty-Chicken]

By "index screen" do you mean the front page index of the forum or the particular index for the specific BSA section?

We're working on a way to either note which are ended or automatically move listings that have ended.
