Hey everyone just stopping by to let everyone know of a new site that is coming to The Crabby Host brand.


www.thetraderspost.com


This is going to be a classifieds site with store capabilities. Buy it now options that will link directly to your paypal account will be available. We are not looking to be the next alternative to eBay site. The intention of this site is to benefit forum members through our credits program as well as provide a classifieds selling outlet for marketing. Any fee structure is yet to be determined but whatever it turns out to be will be minimal at best and the credits program in this forum will be utilized.


Opinions and suggestions are welcome and appreciated. We want to make this a fun place to buy, sell & advertise for the online community.

Here a few of the features:
 
WYSIWYG editor for ad posting

Image gallery associated with each classified
Favorite ads section where you can save the classifieds you like
Internal messaging system for communication between buyers and sellers
Email alerts at appropriate times to buyers and sellers
Member Area for each seller and buyer

rah rah rah rah rah rah Looking groovy - so....when can we register?   

Ok you can register now and have away with it but it's at your own risk right now  hysterical hysterical hysterical hysterical

As you can see we don't have a polices page up yet or terms etc... we are working on it.

Registrants will see a $5.00 site credit to get you started. The forum credits system will be will be added soon so posting in The Crabby Host forum will more or less wipe out your fees.

A few rules I need to state now.

#1 out linking is allowed with the exception of porn style sites and gated sites. This means yes you can link to other stores you own throughout the web (AKA your eBay store, your plunderhere store, IWACSTORES & wherever else you may sell)

#2 Sub Categories are divided up between Advertising & Products. This was done to simplify and separate tangible goods from straight advertising. Please keep all BIN's to the product subcategories of each main category.

#3 The advertising subcategories are just that and we encourage you to use them for advertising your main business. Please note fees pertain to the advertising subcategory while the products subcategory has no additional fee.

#4 Yes there are fees associated with this site but they are minimal and will undergo some adjustments as we balance the site. Our fee system is to keep the site balanced and keep out the rift raft, nothing more nothing less, just ask my wallet  sniff

Lastly and most important:

We have no intention to be your core business. If we become that for you so be it but we strongly suggest an independent website as your main business with www.thetraderspost.com as a marketing channel of your independent website and or alternative venues.

Not sure what's going on there Bob.  sniff

Maybe something I was doing at the time interfered with it.

BTW...Privacy Policy, Legal Policy and Terms and Conditions are now in place and I need a drink now.  hysterical hysterical hysterical hysterical

Is there a Bar Keep in the house?
