Proposal For Rolex Garage
Dear Triton,Moderators and Members,
I suggest that after a seller post an item for sale in the garage section, only the seller or administrator /moderator can reply to the thread.
this is actually done at other websites .
Purpose and advantage to sellers is you will not get all the irritating comments made by people who are just out to mess up your sale.
I tried to sell some items on the garage 6 months ago and like most of you,I get plenty of comments from low ballers like:-
e.g
why so expensive?
the case hands look polished?
I think the price should be $X instead of $Y.
I saw one selling cheaper than yours in ...
model X is not worth this amount.
I'll buy this watch (and you never hear from them but others think it is sold).
the comments will go on and on and instead of a simple sale thread it becomes a long discussion / defensive thread by the seller and low ballers.
Save time
moderators have to waste time editing the thread and reminding everyone not to go off topic.
Save space
The sale thread will just contain a few replies by the seller. no nonsense comments and rebuttals.
I'm sure most of you have encountered this before and lucky for me DA came to my rescue and deleted those nonsensical remarks.
This is a free world and sellers should be able to list at any prices they want,window shoppers should keep their mouths shut and serious buyers can PM or call the sellers directly.
If someone wants to discuss an item for sale, he can start a new thread on any of the relevant sections.
what do you think of this proposal?
