8ight Posted September 6, 2012 Report Share Posted September 6, 2012 On another forum I used to post on (not for car audio) there was a for sale section but also right by it an appraisals section where people could post pics of their gear and get recommendations for a fair price or trade. You could also get feedback on the price you wanted to list at or how much cash someone would need to add for a trade etc. etc. I just noticed there was no section like that here, it would be a cool section to have with our active marketplace and SMD would be the first to have it among the big car audio forums. I wasn't really sure where else to post this and since it's an issue regarding the site I figured I'd drop it here. I'm gonna hate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skullz Posted September 6, 2012 Report Share Posted September 6, 2012 That would quickly get abused and have all kinds of F/S postings in it and if the mods didn't have enough already to deal with it would be even worse with something like that. 01 Ford focus ZX3 Pioneer AVH-X491BHS PPI PC 4800.2 Morel Maximo 6.5" x2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8ight Posted September 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2012 Not really, that is why sections have rules. I've seen it work elsewhere on far less... mature... forums. EDIT: Threads can be moved, warnings issued, doubt it will happen many times. You'll never know until you try, if everyone were that cynical about everything nobody would get out of bed in the morning. Sheesh.

TeamHT Posted September 6, 2012 Report Share Posted September 6, 2012 It's not cynical i think its spot on. I don't know how many members this other forum had, or how many mods, but it just seems to me like it would be s huge headache. Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you?

I don't know how many members this other forum had, or how many mods, but it just seems to me like it would be s huge headache. Precisely. You never know until you try, again I have seen it work. You just have rules, ie -You must post a picture of the item with your name -You cannot ask the poster to sell the item in the thread -Bumps every 24h -Appraisals only, no FS threads Simple.

n8ball2013 Posted September 6, 2012 Report Share Posted September 6, 2012 Im not for this. I already know what kind of issue it will be. We cant get people to follow the rules in the for sale forum that they have to scroll past to make a for sale post. Remember its not you guys that have to help someone when they get shafted int he for sale section its me. I do not want an added headache because people are not smart enough to value their own gear.
