Auction on Fretboard

Deijavoo

I'm getting no success in flogging an amp at the moment and wondered has anyone ran an eBay type auction on here?

Name a time and date for the last post to be in etc....?

Just a thought to avoid the fees.

Sounds like a plan! You try it first

GIJoe

Deijavoo

auctioning won't work on a forum, you'd need some sort of auction plugin or a separate auction software set,

you'll do better just putting it up for sale for what you want for it, if it's not selling it's because either

a.) no-one wants it

b.) no-one has the cash for it

c.) the price is too high

changing the format from a sale item to an auction won't change this as

a.) still no-one will want it

b.) no-one will have the cash for it

c.) it will sell for sell than you wanted and you won't sell it, so you may as well just put the bottom line you'll accept for it if it's not shifting.

Surely shill bidding will be an issue here.

have a wisdom biscuit @darcym.

@Dejavoo - sounds like a great idea to me.

We'll take 27.8% of the final sale fee for forum funds.

And a donation of £12.22 to list it.  Pics are extra (£2.14 each).  And compulsory.  

And please reduce your sig to 2 lines.

Deijavoo

Probably still better than eBay.

TTony

Only "probably" ????

And thanks - almost there, and nicely done!!

Deijavoo

I can just nip my toe over the line with "selling" yeah? It's in the spirit of this here internet site!

GIJoe

DONE!

Deijavoo

Lol.

You better not win with that bid.

Deijavoo

Fuck and piss. Does my Buy It Now price disappear with a bid?

Always just use Buy It Now normally.....

GIJoe

HA!  Seriously I would not expect you to honour it, but it would be pretty funny

Deijavoo

Nah mate, just because I'm drunk, had a bad day and in debt doesn't mean I won't be a man of honour.....

ahem.
