Shonks Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 (edited) hope you all don't mind me mentioning it! There's nothing worse than reading a long post and deciding go for it or not, then half through you decide to buy and by the 4th page the seller decides to inform us its sold.....grrrrrrr! [color=#2F4F4F][i]also applies to the other market place forums![/i][/color] its an unenforceable rule for admin, so a kind request to all of you out there to be a bit more considerate.....thanks!! please post here to keep it on top and to demonstate I'm not alone in this .(unless I am of course..lol)...Shonks Edited September 11, 2015 by Rich
MB1 Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 MB1. Putting" SOLD" in the title when the deal is done Is indeed a great timesaver for others and a common courtesy!
jimbobothy Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 Agreed on this one, a nice big [size=6]SOLD[size=3] is a great help for other BC peeps.[/size][/size]
voxpop Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 Agreed, it can be very frustrating. Please mark your sales sold.
neepheid Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 I would, I just need someone to buy my bass first
Shonks Posted September 19, 2012 Author Posted September 19, 2012 maybe Admid should 'pin' this post!!!!
Badass Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 (edited) Always have done this....Saves loads of PMs asking it is it gone I thought it was already up as a sticky: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/8907-important-when-youve-sold-or-withdrawn-your-stuff-from-sale/"]http://basschat.co.u...tuff-from-sale/[/url] ???

MrRatty Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 Top idea. If everybody could do this then it would help buyers and sellers alike: buyers would be able to quickly skip over sold items and so spend more time looking at the items which are available to the benefit of sellers.
Shonks Posted September 19, 2012 Author Posted September 19, 2012 hey, it got pinned!... Admin geezers...i thank you!!!
JonnyM Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 (edited) +1 And leaving the selling price in the ad after an item has sold is also very useful I find... Edited September 19, 2012 by JonnyM

[/quote] I agree! If I sell anything I always check previous posts to see what the going rate is Very handy!
Shonks Posted September 21, 2012 Author Posted September 21, 2012 sure..but lets see if we can get 'em to behave generally...I'll be happy with that for now...the rest might follow
wal4string Posted December 15, 2012 Posted December 15, 2012 Plus, it annoys me that some people post a reply at the bottom of the post which then bumps it to the top of the listings,

[/quote] Yeah annoying when some people go and delete all details of the instrument and the sale, I've never understood that!

[/quote] +1 The idea really is that you can search for details of your BlatoSplatter FunkySlap-3000 and see what they usually sell for to give you a clue of what's reasonable. Deleting the details after a sale really does everyone a disservice.
ingmar808 Posted August 10, 2013 Posted August 10, 2013 AS ABOVE - How do you edit the title of an ad? NOT AS ABOVE - Please don't PM this info... it should be made super-obvious in the title post!
chris_b Posted August 10, 2013 Posted August 10, 2013 Also....... Leave the title line and the info about the sale.
Kev Posted December 27, 2013 Posted December 27, 2013 Can I please request that this rule continue to be observed? Makes life a lot easier for members and moderators alike
MB1 Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 MB1. Putting .SOLD. In the title line will ensure the topic is Closed quickly No further edit is required. Thanks Martin.
