Sales fees

[bassbora]

When you pay the £20 for selling on here is that for 365 days or just the calendar year?

[ped]

I think it's for 365 days

PM me if you're having a problem and I'll sort it.

Cheers

It's a year from when you pay it, that's how mine worked anyway.

[yorks5stringer]

£7 for a one off sale mind...

Whats the diff between a calender year and 365 days ?

Calendar year would expire on 31st December.

[fleabag]

Ah, thanks

[ped]

Yes I was writing my reply this morning then realised the difference - I was thinking about leap years etc and whether one would mean a day extra!

It's definitely 365 days worth whenever you decide to start the sub. It includes 365 24/7 online support from yours truly - I'm always happy to help at any time.

This is pretty geeky and nobody else really cares ( ) but how does the technical side of it work? Does paying the fee add you to a hidden user group that allows you to start a topic in the sales forums or is it something completely different? Just curious.

Basically yes - you get added to a database of users with a current sub so when you click 'submit' on your advert the system checks to see if you're there - if you aren't then the payment page shows. It works OK but there are a handful of people (5 now I think) who it just doesn't recognise. I can' work out why! Still, not bad after several years.

Is a day 24 hours or 23 hours and 56 minutes though?

[Thunderbird]

There is a question I would like to ask and I hope no one minds me asking I was wondering why it says that a donation of £20 is required when it is really compulsory to pay to sell? as I see more and more places doing this (btw I have no issues with the fee )

Is it possibly a tax thing ? They're not ' selling ' anything if people are making a donation.

I have no idea really but if it saves the BC big cheeses some money by wording it in their favour, good for them

[/quote]I thought that and I agree but was just curious

[bassbora]

Funny how my funny little question has sparked a debate. Seems to generate more interest than when I go on about Warwicks, just shows you.

Cal year is just from Jan to Dec as stated. That was just my question.

I came across another item I have and was thinking of maybe selling. But I have no idea how much its worth. So I don't want to put a crazy price on it but I am not sure if its against the rules to pose the question.

What do the mods say about that?

Your best bet is to research Sold Items on Ebay or just do a Google search.
Valuation request posts on here will be taken.

If it's a leap year do you get a day free or is it £20.05?

You can just pay an extra 20p every four years - cuts down on the credit card payment fees...
