trials hoe Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 so after being sick of looking through the countless listings of dj, xc and all the other crap claiming to be 'trials' related on gaybay, I thought to myself why doesn't tf have its own? ebay used to be a good place to sniff out a bargin but now its lame. I have no clue about web design and such but an auction section would be a great addition to tf. has this been asked before? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simpson Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 No-one would bid and shit would go too cheap initially, so people would stop putting stuff on there. Would be my guess anyway, if you were talking about a specilized ebay for all bikes in general then it could work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 It sucks cock and balls because of the bullshit offers that people make on here anyway. I hate putting stuff up for sale at the best of times 'cos you just get dicked around with endless requests to sell for waaaaaaay less than something's worth, so I'd imagine a bidding system would be even worse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich J Posted May 26, 2012 Report Share Posted May 26, 2012 Sensible reserves/ starting prices? That way you wouldn't get the silly people bidding silly prices? Trouble is theres nothing to stop people bidding and not paying on winning for the sake of it, thats ebays problem too in my eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT! Posted May 26, 2012 Report Share Posted May 26, 2012 Rich seems to have realized the biggest problem. Someone will bid and not pay, something will sell for too low and the seller won't sell it. As we have it now, people are free to offer whatever amount they like, if the seller wants to accept he can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weirdoku Posted May 26, 2012 Report Share Posted May 26, 2012 Why not just stick to eBay? List the item, make a post in For Sale Thread as well, put a link in there and say its on eBay as well, that way you get people here interested as well as all the other people out there who's uses eBay that's not on here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
