Please send your offers to the seller directly and do not post them in the forum.

If I send my offer directly to the seller, that would be a Pure Ebay thing!!!
Because, and let me make this clear-------------->He can sit and wait for the "best offer" Which is exactly like an auction !!!

So no, I will not do that !!!I think its only fare for the rest to visibly see whats going on in a post.Like offers being made, I know I always post directly when I make an offer on something if some else does'nt take it Wink


Not being mad here, just making a point: Smile


Thanx,

That's not an auction for two reasons - nobody except the seller can see your offer, and your offer is only valid for limited time.

Sorry, but these are the rules:

Quote:
If you're posting "For Sale" message please either specify asking price, or ask people to send you offers by e-mail or PM. Do no ask people to bid or post offers in the forum!

As an administrator of the board I will start removing all offers posted in the forum.

It shouldn't as I will only enforce the rule. Besides, we don't have many people violating this rule Wink If you feel more comfortable with eBay-like auctions, and if there will be interest from other members of the forum I can set up a no-fee auction site just for chips.

That's not a new rule, and I'm not the first administrator/moderator who is trying to enforce it:
