You get a little taste of it with the sales you do Smile

I'm in as well, and thank you immensely for building this community and running AVICC. Things are tough as I am unemployed, but I will support you as soon as I land a job

Looking forward to hear how you'll implement support, so I can pay a little more than a beer, when I'm confused about PayPay fees Laughing

I realized with my own first sales that sorting and packing items once for 10-15 people is already some work, now to manage > 200 people 365/365 :p ...

As a student I can't do much now, but if I get a job in the 2020s and still collect chips at this time, I will contribute!

Want List is a good idea!

John, with my 1.99€ paypal topic and messages we've talked about, it would make a lot of senses to impose Chipay on the less than 4-Bit seller.

It would :
- Avoid new user/seller to never send their cpu.
- Give you the 1.99€ to you directly instead of paypal
- Give more responsibilities to seller who owes you money
- And an opportunity to go in 4-bit and donate without asking Smile

Not everyone has to pay $1.99 for every payment. Some payments are free. Chippay is never free as there is the cost of Chippay AND the paypal charges to send money to John.

SOme people maintain a positive balance that they use chippay from, so they only pay paypal fees once, and chippay is free under $5 (wanted to make it so people werent getting hammered on the small payments like Paypal does)

Awesome work, AVICC!!

This is an amazing achievement. I am in for the supporter model. I am happy to pay a fee to keep AVICC running.

My question is, How would you like to differentiate each of the level? e.g. 8bit/16bit /32bit

Initially its just status levels, but I think I will do some things like:
AVICC
Priority on Want Lists/Bid Assist
Lower Consignment Fees
Reduced/Free Chip Pay

CPU Shack
Supporter Page with name/link/banner of supporters depending on level
Discount on Trade List purchases

I want to make sure I don't 'price out' those collectors that cant afford as much, don't want to make AVICC something that prevents people from collecting ever
