buy/sell/trade games

[Nitz]

just curious would having a buy/sell/trade forum help anyone? or are people interested in selling or buying.. or even trading games with each other? I saw an xbox forum do that and it seems to work alright. Just depends on how many people would be interested..

Nitz you need help, you need to go to a GAA *gamers adict association* meeting lol

Lol.. i have some games to sell, but i dont think that i would use a forum to sell them lol. Rather not go through the hassle when you can get your money right away. Still, others may be interested in something like this.

 

[Nitz]

umm if your using paypal.. you get your money right away.. and almost anyone can use a paypal.. because you can now setup your debit or bank account and transfer money to it, once you get paid for your game.

 

[Jing]

but.... lets consider how many members here actually have a bank account... ok now that thats out of the picture i think it sounds like an ok idea. but thats just me.

i agree with serenity. A forum isn't rele the best place to buy and sell games, right?

Hmm I think our biggest opponent would be ebay....

Hmm I think our biggest opponent would be ebay....

I doubt that.. prices on GP would be a bit cheaper.. I wouldn't mind buying games off members here anyone selling SNES games

 

[The Legendary Saviour]

Admit it Nitz, you just wanna get some cheap SNES games for your collection

 

[Nitz]

yeah I do.. anyone in USA or Canada have any lying around

 

[Terra]

even if we wanted to give you some, we wouldn't do it off a forum...or thats just me

 

[Nitz]

what's wrong through a forum? still safe.. if you use paypal.. and you would mostly get stuff from high posters.. who wouldn't want to screw over anyone and get banned for life... + you have pics to prove and show what it looks like..

 

[Terra]

i guess you have a point there.....but a forum isn't rele a plcae to buy and sell things. Maybe if we had a separate site for this stuff...

 

[Fusion-X]

theres a huge airsoft forums i go to that has a buy and sell section, and sure there's problems but most of them get resolvoed

 

[Nitz]

yeah but we have more trusted members here.. I'd rather buy a game off someone here, since I know the member more.. then some guy I don't know at all. It's also a easier way to make cash if you have games lying around, while at the same time for a buyer to get a game they want.

As far as ideas for GP go, I really have to say that this . . . isn't one xD I have no use for anything of the sort - for a start I don't even have PayPal because I'm not old enough, and I don't have a job anyway, and I don't have the consoles apart from a soundless GB and a Lynx II, and I'm sure my mum and dad would be suspicious of games just coming in the mail . . .

 

[Serenity]

This could actualyl be a good idea maybe...lol i kinda am changing my mind..cause the ppl on the forum are more trustworthy then the ppl on ebay im sure of it..everyone knows eachother.

 

[Nitz]

well. I don't think trying it hurts.. but it would work better if we cna get a more older audience of members.. like around 20-25. Which I'm hoping we get soon...

 

[The Legendary Saviour]

Well we could just try it out?
If nobody is using it, we can take it off again.

 

[Terra]

ok...so we can make it but only on a trial basis...
