ped Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 Hi folks You may have noticed a new forum in the marketplace called 'commercial items for sale' Currently it's just a bit of a test, but ideally I'd like it to be an area for used bass shops, luthiers and small scale companies to list items they have for sale, so you can look through all the stock directly on BC. We'll see how it goes, and I'll be adding some companies as we go - I will over the next few weeks be talking to small shops and dealers to sign a few more up. Ideally I'd like items posted there to be automatically tagged as 'dealer' but I'm working on things like that, so it's still a work in progress. I hope you like it and find it useful - let's see what happens. Cheers ped 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassApprentice Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 Just my initial input - love the idea, but I don't think I like it at the top of the For Sale section, maybe put it above the "Other Musically Related" tab? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has to be in the 'marketplace' section but yes it'll be moved probably to above 'other items for sale' 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The shop windows can vary in size depending on the ad spend budget of enterprise. And we can then keep the main sales threads for 'used' items, for us bargain hunters and folk looking to move on gear who don't have the ad spend firepower of commercial enterprises?

Difficult/impossible to have that on this software, and this way the companies can easily update and reply to threads, too. It has to be as easy as possible for them, and the from format works well from both a software and user POV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discreet Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 I like it, but at this rate my day will consist of 12 hours looking at bass gear and 12 hours working to pay for it all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
