They were bought for profit purposes only, (I use this as an example).

Kevin Dean Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 I recently paid £20 & another £20 when I saw the anual fee note , even though I havn't sold anything on here yey I think it's worth £20 a year just for the info I get . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prime_BASS Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Paid my fee, well worth it, but I doubt I'll be paying for further years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlfer Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 I have no problem with the fee, I'm a gear tart who is never happy, bit of a game really . One unexpected side issue now is this. If I saw something on FEEBay that was nice bass, that our members would like a look at, I would contact the FEEBayer, inform them about Basschat, and tell them to join and put their bass up on here, free. I have probably introduced 15/20 new members that way. I can't do that now as they would obviously have to pay at least £7. There is a cracking Yam Att Special on there at the moment. He knows little about it. I have given him some info, however, I haven't recommended he put it on BC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ped Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 Hi mate Currently the system will ask you to pay again as and when your subscription expires. We may be setting up an email notification in the future. You can always email us to find out the date yours expires if you like. Cheers ped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ras52 Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 I'm possibly being a bit thick here: my excuse is that I was on a sabbatical from BC when the marketplace rules changed. I (of course) love BC, and also want to "thin out" the collection... but how do I "subscribe"? I don't want to dive in with listings and run up a bill of ad-hoc listing fees.

Guest teamcoy Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 (edited) I think the value I/we all get from this community is worth well more than £20 a year. I have bought, sold and traded many an item, I have donated in the past and bought a polo shirt and lanyard. This does not put me off one iota, if anything I am really glad that steps have been taken to ensure the site remains. Cheers guys for all of your hard work and for keeping it all going.

It appears most of the mod team don't read the rules, but expect others too. Colour me annoyed some.

Hamster Posted October 2, 2013 Author Share Posted October 2, 2013 Bearing in mind that none of us are professional rule writers we do the best we can and with best intentions. Sometimes a situation like this occurs where a practice develops which breaks the rules, but seems entirely reasonable - posting a link to an item you have advertised on the website within the guidelines within a signature. It seems common sense to adjust the rule - which I'll do now Thanks for raising awareness of the issue! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
