Marketplace section : Buy, Sell, Trade

[Pavle]

Forum obviously needs something like marketplace section, especially because we should be able to swap stickers, cards, packs or anything else. Swapping is what this hobby is about, right?

So I am still trying to figure out how swapping section should look? Any ideas? Should each member have a topic where he/her will post what he needs and what he has for trade?

 

[Caniggia]

maybe best solution is keeping this chance for current collection in the single topics and here for old collections; the aim is divide too many possible objects, could start a mess

beside that, i'm really interest about change or chance to be helped by other collectors worldwide... i remember how much was so hard to find all different extra and adding stickers for Brasil 2014 ...

 

[Pavle]

Absolutely agreed with you. 1 topic per collection will be a rule (I hope to create forum rules and guides very soon). We do not want too many topics mixed up, I love keeping things organized, like most of the fellow collectors

I will see what I can do about marketplace. Its already exciting to see people from all around the world, so many trading possibilities.

 

[Caniggia]

for example marketplace of World Cup albums can be part of topic you have already prepared, divided for periods. I'll use it tomorrow

 

[Pavle]

Definitely there will be separate marketplace section, where as collection chat will be in appropriate topic. Anyway, for now wait with offer/demand posts until we figure out the best way to trade/buy/sell.

Would like to hear what others have to say about this.

 

[Caniggia]

ok, i'll wait for my tons of "searching for"

 

[MrKoko]

OK! I will wait to put my missing list stickers.
I hope this Forum will be a big help to finnish some collections i have and others from another colectors.

Maybe you could add a subsection for trading in each topic presenting a specific album and/or collection ?

 

[Agustín]

I think there should be a section, such as General, Football stickers, Football trading cards, etc, where the main collections of the moment would appear (and pasts ones too), and inside each one would ask what is he looking for and where is he from. Just an opinion

 

[Pavle]

Guys I do not think it would be good to spam topic with numbers of stickers. There are topics for information and discussion, and there will be a section for trading. I am close to figuring out how to do this. Appreciate your suggestion though.

 

[Pavle]

Still trying to figure how this thing might work.

 

[Pavle]

Added new subforum called marketplace with sections : trade, buy, sell.
These are for testing purposes only right now until strict rules of trading, buying and selling are made.

I would need your help with creating rules, so if anyone has any suggestions or rules that should be followed post them bellow. The sooner we agree on the best and most secure way to buy,sell and trade, the better.

 

[Pavle]

Added test items in buying/selling section. Take a look at it on this link.

Let me know if you think this is good way buying/selling to be organized or they need subforums.

Be aware that any item,collection, or anything else on the forum can be found quickly if you use search located on top right corner of each page, bellow social media icons.

 

[Pavle]

Okay, everything is done.

Would you prefer :
1. 1 topic per collection in trading area. Meaning 1x World Cup 2014 Panini, 1x Champions Leage 2014/15, etc. In each topic members put wjat thy need or and have from that particular set.
2. Each member has a topic for himself where he can post all collections listed with missings or duplicates. Example topic Pavle trade list. My list will have all collections: WC 2014, UCL 2015, etc etc. So all in 1 topic for 1 member.

Let me know.

 

[Makhno]

The first solution seems to be the best and the less messy. In other hand, it will generate, I guess, more topics than the second one. So...

 

[Pavle]

It will certainly be easier for people who are looking to complete a collection to find what they need fast with first solution.
I agree it can get messy over time.
Well I can add subforums for them or prefixes. With current size of the forum that would not make much sense, but in future it might.

 

[Makhno]

I agree and vote : first solution

 

[Pavle]

Buying/Selling/Trade sections are now available and you can post your own lists there.
Make sure to obey the rules.
If you have any further suggestion or you think something should be added to the rules, let me know.
Happy buying/trading/selling

A new forums subsection has been added. Entire Supply and Demand located in "Marketplace"
In this forum, members can post all of their collections in one topic and the lists of got/need.

This type of lists can be helpful when you are doing a larger trade with a member. It will also be good way for you to keep a track of all of your lists at one place.

I understand that currently it sounds confusing, but I think it is the best way for now. You can look at my own "Pavle´s List" which I will use to link to all of my collection lists and also put everything I have for trade there.

I hope that in the next few days I will have the time to create a few video tutorials that will clarify all the forum features etc.

As always feedback is highly appreciated, let me know what you guys think.
