micky boy Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Think its due to the fact it ends up going from a whats it worth thread to a for sale thread! Could be rong though Link to post Share on other sites

TrisK Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Look in the for sale section at previous threads. Or eBay can be a suitable guage Link to post Share on other sites
keirz Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 so whats the crack with wanted threads. They could lead to a sale that doesnt have the correct structure. Can a mod please explain the difference for me? Link to post Share on other sites
_shaun_ Posted December 26, 2012 Author Share Posted December 26, 2012 good point realy keirz. what if u done price check in the exact same format as a for sales thread? just with a query on price by all accounts thats the same format. if anything i would imagine it would cut down on spam cause normal when someone overprices something everyone has something to say about it?IMO price check threads would be a better thing to have would save people with less knowledge of stuff getting ripped off.

Got.boost Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 IMO price check threads would be a better thing to have would save people with less knowledge of stuff getting ripped off.This is a good idea I think someone should put this forward to a mod Link to post Share on other sites
ro55ifumi Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 (edited) AllThe reason to stop the "Gauging interest" threads was down to people using them to actually sell items,without pic or a for sale structure/template,People were then purchasing items blind and getting ripped off, this was a collective decision by the Mod roomAs stated use the old threads to gauge prices or search ebay etc, at the end of the day people will only pay what they feel is acceptable, i for one do re search before buying and is the advice that i would offer everyone.The "Wanted" thread is just that Keirz, it would be down too the individual "wanting" to ask for pics,condition price etc!!Most of the time people are linked up to ebay or other auction sitesThread LockedJohn Edited December 26, 2012 by ro55ifumi Link to post Share on other sites
