It says we have to AGREE AND PARTICIPATE. Where do we agree? And does that mean we all have to post an auction?

I wanted to know if we could list an auction and then in the body tell about other eggs that we had as well.

 

[JJMR794]

Oh I See... Well I Think The Agree Thing Is A Given When You Post A Real Auction--- Kinda Like The User Agreement Here--- The One That Governs Conduct And What Not... We Dont Actually Agree Or Sign Anything But Posting Something Counts As An Acknowledgement And Agreeance To It... I Dont Know How Strict They'll Be About Posting A "grocery List" Of Other Items Available In Your Auction.... I Guess We'll See When It Gets Going Huh? Personally I Dont Like This Idea--- I'm All For Adding Specific Auction Threads, But I Dont Like Giving Up The Standard Bst Section---- If I Want To Post An Auction I Belong To Both Egg Bid And Ebay-- I Do That There, Not Here... I Havent Heard Anyone Thats All That Crazy About This New Change, So Maybe It Will Fail Miserably And They'll Go Back To The Old Way???

Well, I see a whole 10 auctions posted so far, all boards.

Dont get me wrong i realy like the auction system and feedback system but i do not like the 3 or 10 posts in 30 days. if i have 3 different types of quail and want to sell some eggs then thats it for the month bla. i dont know what the big deal is with the no bumping your post or some one else bumping the post. i have been on many forums and never had any problem with bumping post atleat once a day on most forums they didnt want ya to do it more than once but ah what ever i will get off my soap box now


I did take my eggs out of the turner tonight

I agree, can't see what the problem with it was (the bumping). The old system seemed to work fine (lots of eggs sold). Too many rules can get to be a problem after a while, sometimes it easier to leave things alone. I think it really isn't so much about the extra work for the mods but the extra money from the new GFMs.

Kullas I'm With You On The 3 Or 10--- That Just Kinda Scream Blackmail To Me--- Pay For A Golden Feather Membership Or We'll Limit You To Nothing....
As Far As Bumping They Have Had A Thing About That Even On The Bst Forum For A Long Time And Many Mods Will Gig You On It If They See It...
As Far As Auctions Themselves--- Like I Said In A Previous Post I Use Eggbid And Ebay. I Dont Want To Auction My Stuff Here--- I Want To Flat Out Sell Or Trade My Stuff Here. I Have Done Alot Of Trading In Here.... I Mean Alot. This Past Spring When My Serama Girls Were Throwin Eggs Out Like A Major League Pitcher I Sold And Traded For Lots Of Nice Eggs-- I Appreciate Trading In A Big Way. Its A Win- Win Scenario--- You Got Red Golden Pheasant Eggs And Want Some Serama Eggs For The Misses--- I'm Your Guy! Lets Talk A Deal! --- Dont Cost You Anything But Shipping And You Get Eggs For A Happy Momma--- Your Good. Dont Cost Me Anything But Shipping And I Get The Rare Ornimental Pheasant Eggs I Want--- I'm Good= Win-win. Now That'll Go By The Way Side---- To Me Its A Major Bummer

I do not like the new Auction thingy they have going on. That just seems absolutely ridiculous to me.

I just made a listing & it is only good for one item & 3 days. Actually I had a problem editing it & made a second one by mistake so I'm down to 8 now. If you are not a GFM you can only sell for 12 days out of the month listing one item at a time. I list on eBay & only list one time & as many as people want to buy. I just pay my fee for the listing each month & then each one I sell. I think I would just rather sell there.

That is a pain in the butt to set a listing up for just three days & one cheap item. Setting the page up is much harder here also. A page that would take me a hour to do on eBay would take me 3 days here.
