This is my attempt to atleast show that there is an upswing of sales on neowin, and putting them in a new section would be nice..

All above should be from general and hardware with a reply within the 30days, obviously you'll find more in other forums and by looking back further. I would think to offer some bit of security to the buyer and seller we can put a few rules in place..

1. I would think a limit of atleast 20 to 50 posts on neowin before you can sell an item.

2. no crosslisting on ebay or any other forum to avoid a double-sale. (but with that an option for buyer and seller to agree to put it on ebay for the sake of extra protection)

3. listing a direct but (non)negotiable price. (meaning no auction bidding)

4. Must be within possesion of item.

5. No selling of cd keys without original cd.

6. A 24 hour bump rule to keep topics from getting bumped throughout the day by the seller.

(note, I was bored waiting for my clothes to get dry :p)

Yeah, rules are a good idea (Y) Although, #3: A non negotiable price would suck.. #5: why not? eBay lets you do it.. #6: How about no bumps allowed?

#3 is either negotiable or not, but just list a clear price for all items, it's why non is in ( )

#5 well was thinking of without original cd, some games with punkbuster checks would see a double cd key right? I'm not sure on this though..

#6 sounds good to me :)

#5 well, even if they sell it with the CD key, the original owner can still warez the CD and use the CD key.. I just figure that if they're selling just CD keys, some people would be interested in getting one and using it with their own legit copy of the game in case their original CD key gets banned.. And the buyer will have good faith in the seller in that the seller wont use the CD key again.

Come to think of it, thats a pretty stupid idea :dontgetit: Nevermind.

I like the idea of having the buy/sell forum's posts not listed on the Active Threads list. That kind of solves the 'bump' issue.

Cool, that's awesome. I would like to see this happed. I fell that there is a demand for the new section in the forum.. It may not show it now but I think people are just to afraid to post what they want to sell in case they got flamed.

I'm all for it :D
