Rules for selling extra “stuff”.

[Glp1judd]

Hi all,

What are the rules for selling extra “stuff” here?

For instance, after a payment glitch, I ended up with a double order from a vendor. Yes I can freeze, but I kinda have enough at the moment.

Can I post here?

You want to sell your extra? I don't see an issue although I don't know if anyone would risk it

I don’t think Zippity has an issue with it. You could ask @exploitedworkerbee if you can.

I will defer to @ZippityDooDah. Until he responds though please refrain @Glp1judd

I believe there was a post about this a while ago, if I remember correctly Zippy said he had considered making a section. But opted not to because it could potentially cause a lot of problems and conflict if there is no oversight or verification.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Edit:

More of less accurate

This has been something I've been struggling with since first launching the forum.

Ideally I agree that it would be a great benefit for everyone to have a B/S/T section.

Unfortunately there have been SO MANY scammers ripping people off on other platforms that I've been weary of offering that feature here because I don't want to see anyone get ripped off. It's one thing to give strong "buyer beware" warnings for anyone buying direct from any of the Chinese suppliers but at least they go into it knowing there's a chance they'll get ripped off.

There was someone just in the past couple...

I worry about scams becoming common here if folks are allowed to sell personal stash. I recommend it not take place on this forum.

It’s definitely a slippery slope.

Unfortunately, that does happen once in awhile.

Thanks for linking that post.

Yeah, I'm still in the "nope" column regarding B/S/T here. I really want to find a way to enable it as I think it could offer a lot of value to our members, but I also don't want to see a single person get ripped off so unless/until I can figure out a way to overcome that concern I believe it's best to avoid any member-to-member deals for now.

I'd buy from you and a couple of folks on here, but that is only because I have taken the time to read and learn about the people on here via their experience and commitment to research.

Yeah, maybe that's because I have some issues, but I don't see having extra to sell even if I have enough for an eternity
