Thanks to everyone for your input and insightful comments. I will consider the following future changes to the marketlace:
-Requiring an asking price or price range
-Only permitting eBay links after an item has been in the Marketplace for at least week
-Permitting only definitive "for sale" or "for trade" threads; no "feelers" or "would anyone be interesed" threads
I'd also like remind everyone to use the proper acronyms in all thread titles. One of the following
must be found at the beginning of each thraed title, depending on category and thread type: FS, FA, WTB, or WTT. It's also important that everyone leaves feedback for each transaction. This is quick and easy to do, so I strongly encourage it so that future users know which sellers or buyers are to be trusted.
Finally, please remember to
close all of your outdated or sold items. You can easily close your own Marketplace threads by using this system:
