ped Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 [quote name='jezzaboy' timestamp='1362499272' post='2000223'] As soon as paypal decide to give me the funds that have been placed in my paypal account for several items I have sold on here (something to do with being a new memeber of pp-bulls*it if you ask me), I shall be sending the 20 quid over to yourselves. Even if you don`t intened selling anything, it is worth it! In case I have missed it, how do you donate the money? Is it just through the donate button as normal? Forget the last statement. Ped answered the question as I was typing. [/quote] Hi mate Try the new 'Support BC' page at the top of the site. Thanks for that ped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muzz Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 £20 sent, even if I wasn't selling anything, that still works out for me as about 0.00002p per visit. Bargain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] No problem at all - however if you want to list something now you can still use a debit card without having a PayPal account. Just click the second option on the paypal payment page (they've tried to hide it) Otherwise, feel free to get around to it when convenient for you.

tedmanzie Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 (edited) Ped I just paid my £20 by going to the 'support basschat' tab and doing it via paypal. I did the 'unlimited threads for a year'. I thought the donation field was a bit confusing? Is this for donations in addition to the £20? [EDIT - i see this is explained in the intro, i didn't read it properly] ALso, and this is the main thing - I was signed in, but I don't think there is any link between my paypal and my basschat account - eg. my email i use is different, my name is different, and i wasn't asked to enter my basschat username when making the donation. So... how will you (the websiite) know that I've paid? Ted Edited March 6, 2013 by tedmanzie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tedmanzie Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 you're right - a user number does appear on my receipt. it seems like if i sign out, and then try to pay the subscription then it still directs me to paypal. so if you're not signed in, what user-info is the system collecting? note - this was just a test, i didn't complete the transaction. anyway, just a question, i expect its been tested.

[/quote] Hi mate Yep that's right, the payment status is married to your user number, rather than user name. This means users may still change their username with no adverse effect on their payment status. Interesting point regarding the logged in/out bit. I'm changing it so only logged in users can proceed to payment. Thanks for raising it. ped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrismuzz Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 [quote name='Hamster' timestamp='1362420787' post='1999463'] The pre-subscription items advertised for sale can carry on being bumped as it would be unfair to introduce the subscription retrospectively. I would be looking though for activity from the seller with bumping within the guidelines. We will be watching for sale threads where a pre-subscription Fender becomes a post-subscription Musicman! - All the Moderation team can see all previous posts - even if they have been 'deleted' by the poster. Any threads for items marked as sold/traded will be closed. They will not be 'deleted' as is often the request. We will see how it all goes, but I guess I might introduce a rule where if there has been no activity on an item for more than 28 days I might close it. [/quote] I was just wondering about this actually, good thing it's been noticed! I have sold a few things in my time here. Nothing over £100 as far as I remember, but I have bought a lot of stuff at some very good prices. I did promise myself to make a donation at some point, so the fact that this subscription thing has come about is the kick up the arse I needed! I'm contemplating whether or not to sell my SansAmp, and if I do it will be on here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ped Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Thanks guys yes one of the first things we plan on doing is upgrading the mobile app a bit. I was going to 'promote' the new payment section a bit but actually I'm leaving it to naturally tick over to give a more realistic idea of how it will run.
