R5: HWBot Marketplace

[der8auer]

I moved the postings from this topic: http://hwbot.org/forum/showthread.php?p=195470

 

The current rule is that it's not allowed to sell stuff just in the Offtopic-Section (as far as I know)

 

What about a marketplace like on XS or other forums?

A guy who is trying to sell a single F1EE gets his topic closed but this is ok...... ?

I had a discussion about this with Massman. I'm not selling the stuff here on HWBot. I'm just "linking".

 

Selling stuff directly in a topic is not allowed as we don't have a sales section here on HWBot - Sorry. Otherwise I would also sell my coolers directly here

[Viss]

I understand the difference buddy, it just feels a bit strange to me. A clear policy and set of rules that are carried out threw all levels would be a very welcome thing imho.

[der8auer]

Yes I agree on this I opened the topic again - was already a year old anyway

 

Will ask Massman to get a proper rule about the sales stuff.

why can't we actually make an OC marketplace here at hwbot? .. every other forum has one

[Viss]

Just used this topic as an example, it has nothing to do with you or your products, i like your work a lot!

[der8auer]

@ Sam: Yea that was the topic we talked about and he disagreed. But maybe we can change his opinion

 

@ Viss: I know No problem. I preffer people saying straight if something is wrong so we can find a solution to make it better.

That's awesome! You've met Massman....and you say that :p

 

I've also thought about a for sale section on HWB. Like OCBay.... put people might actually use it.

I recall there was an OCbay.net or something

Market place would be great.

As long as CN is kept outside so we actually get a chance at buying something

A classifieds section would be great.

Yea I think that would be the best way.

I think an open international market place is hard to handle as good as it sounds.

 

An area for "trusted sellers / shops" (however they are choosen but kingpincooling and der8auer's shop would be in for sure if you ask me) would be a good idea.

[Christian Ney]

Marketplace rules: if something goes wrong: both seller and buyer are banned no discussion

 

 

Fair enough

[Moose83]

And staff too, because not tested stuff before:)

+1 for marketplace.

 

I bet it'd be one of the busier sections to be honest.

 

Right now you kinda have to hit ALL the different OC sites to find good deals / specific items... I bet if there were a marketplace here that would change.

[Mafio]

marketplace sections are always a PITA.

honestly I don't think it's a good idea to have one here on the bot.

[George_o/c]

What exactly do you guys mean by marketplace?

 

I'm all for a sales section that has a 50 or 100 posts requirement in order to be visible
