PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

Okay, the new Classified's system has been up and running for a couple of months now and while there have been a few glitches here and there, it has been used a lot (3,330 listings have been made at the time of this post).

Surprisingly, the feedback system hasn't been used much.

Regardless, we want to know what everyone thinks about the system.

If you have used the system even once to browse, buy or sell, please vote in the poll above. Please don't bother posting what you do or don't liike about it or what you would like changed about it, we just want to know your answer to the choices above as the system stands today.

If you don't read this post completely and don't vote but instead start yammering on in a reply about what you would like to see changed, that will constitute as proof of being stupid and you shall face the scrutiny of the entire community.

So please, no commentary and just simply vote honestly with the choice that matches how you feel the best.

Any outcome does not guarantee anything, we just want to know what everyone thinks right now.

THIS POLL WILL AUTOMATICALLY CLOSE on 7-21-06

 

I love the thing, compared to the old style. I even have the classifields set up as my homepage.

As for constructive critiquing, you hit it on the head in your first post. the feedback. I have bought rougly 10-15 things off the classifieds already, but i have no feedback.

And maybe a way to call "dibs" on an item. There have been a couple of times where I have negotiated price/terms on an item, just to have the seller sell the item the next day to someone else.

Other than that, it rocks!

 

I dont like it one bit, its hard to sell a lot parts at once as u have to make a lot of posts. Also it seems a lot of people quit using it all toghter? It is very hard to sell stuff these days...coinsidance ? I would love to go back to the old style, had no problems selling anything then.

 

+1

I quit using it. I tried to sell a few things, and had horrible luck. Ive purchased a couple things, but the way it is now, I only go in there looking for a certain something, not just to brouse and buy random stuff.

BTW, I love this way of doing things: http://www.fullsizechevy.com/forums/...splay.php?f=73

 

the old style with the newer features would be nice ...

ie: being able to label your item with the categories we now currently have, but still be able to list everything in the previous format. this would allow us to search for a category of item rather than the 50 different spellings of a particular item.

 

I don't know about other auctions but with mine the buyer never went through the official purchasing method on the board... he just PM'd me and sent me a cashier's check.

But that's because he was on business in Ireland and had a business partner in the US who owed some money to another partner in nigeria so he....
j/k (About the second part)

 

The ad should go to the top of the page with every new post.

I couldn't edit my ad after I placed it, that was a while ago that I tried though.

 

Thanks for the input guys, but we are not looking for suggestions on what to change, we want to know what everone thinks as it stands RIGHT NOW.

 

why dont u sticky that in the classified section, kinda pathetic only 30 people voted since Sunday

 

One thing I don't like is that you can't (or I am just computer illiterate) TTT posts....

 

For those in the community who read the instructions carefully, you now realize that I'M STUPID!

 

i like it i didnt even know u could leave feedback though .

 

I LOVE that you can't TTT posts... it's simply unfair to push others down like that. If your auction didn't get the results you hoped for by the time it's pushed off the front page, then perhaps you should recreate the auction with a significantly lower price or something, but just TTT'ing your same old auction is kinda unfair to those new auctions that were just posted.

You don't see ebay allowing "TTT", do ya?

 

Me likey! A lot easier to get around.

Could use a forum Jump menu at the bottom.

 

I like it but it seems that the volume of people has gone down dramaticaly since the new system started. Not sure why but once you learn the features it is really a great new system.

Everyone wanted a feed back system and now its here, but nobody is using it.
