Ferrari Chat Diecast sales/trade question.

Yes, in Ferrariads above---BUT you must be subscribed to use it...You can always send me a PM with what you have--

 

what's that?

 

I wish there was some sort of sale/trade subforum in the Collectables, Literature & Models section, that would be sweet. I realize that there is FerrariAds, and that's fine - but I think a subforum for selling/trading would be great - and it would be good for the folks like VTC as well - perhaps they could even give sponsors of collectables a sticky thread that'd always be at the top or something - an added bonus of being a sponsor... just my $.02

 

i agree a buy/sell collectables forum would be great!
PS DMC308 could you PM me with what you are wanting to get rid of as well? thanks,

 

I think it would be an exellent idea. Hopefully someone can set this up

DMC308 - PM me your list too!

 

DMC

I want to see the list also...thx

 

Agreed!

 

To further the idea, I think there would have to clear rules laid out for posting a sale/trade thread. Also, I'd hate to see non-subscribed members left out... but I think a way around that would be to use a certain post count, or length of membership - or combo, so that everyone could participate. I think it would be a great addition to my favorte site on the web!

 

I agree totally with with your suggestion.
i hope this includes non subscribed/subscribed members.
i think this is a great idea, i hope it takes off.

 

I'm a member of several non-automotive forums that have a "trading post" sub forum and there are ways for paying members as well as non-paying members to be involved. I think this could be a really great addition to F-Chat, there are a lot of us active collectors and it'd be awesome to have this added functionality here at F-Chat.

 

OK----Someone present this to Rob--maybe it can happen

 

I also agree with this idea, i have several Ferrari items/ Non Ferrari Items i would like to get rid of aswell. And im sure i would interested in what others had to offer. Its hard to cycle through thousands of ferrariads.com listings to possible find something.

 

I sent a PM to Rob...

 

sounds good to me too,
i have an f40 (possibly) to unload, and would LOVE to have a 360 CS

 

I'm talking to Rob about the possibility of making a section or two if FerrariAds.com that are a little more specific for just this kind of stuff.

If, instead of having to subscribe there was a small listing fee, payable by paypal only, would that work? Suppose, just like the newspaper, there was a $2.00 listing fee for an ad for a misc. item on FerrariAds, no cars, just the other stuff that we don't see much of now on there.

Collectibles, parts, books, manuals, whatever, but just a quick pop from your paypal account for each listing of a couple bucks.

Would that be worth it?

No flames on this please, I'm just floating the idea, it's mine, not Rob's.

I'd rather see the fees built in to the cost of membership, or additional add-on to membership. That way I'm not sending paypal for a couple of bucks everytime I want to sell a $10 item. Perhaps non-subscribers could pay a fee, I dunno.

The other thing is, I like the idea of a collectables sub-forum, becuase it's right here, you don't have to leave the forums. I'd use a modified FerrariAds about as much as I use it now (read: rarely)

 

That sounds perfect. Maybe an extra few bucks a year for subscribed members and non-subscribed members pay a fee per transaction...

 

I would use whatever diecast trading section might be established.

 

i would pay as a seller, but i agree nopassn, if im going to pay 1-2 bucks per item to only get 10 bucks out of it, id rather just put it on ebay. But i would pay maybe 10-15 bucks for the year or something along those lines.
