Devilsguy Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 Seeing a lot of "make me an offer" sale posts in the groups the last couple of weeks. Funny thing is most of these groups have in their rules that prices must be posted in all sales ads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At some point, I would not be surprised if Facebook started charging a listing fee for sales posts. They already have their "marketplace" option when you list a jersey and given how Facebook works, it makes sense that they would try to monetize this too. The logistics would be a pain for them to start but man ... they have the community to pull it off. I would imagine it would be very difficult. Not that I use Facebook or know how it works, but if there is an area where you can post things about jerseys without charge, people will figure out a way to abuse that and avoid paying if there was also a place that charged for sale posts. then Facebook would have to figure out a way to monitor and enforce the rules, which seems like it would be an onerous task.

amonte78 Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 (edited) The admins of the groups should be able to fine every user who posts a preview mail day, several grail days or an ad for a puck or a replica jersey. Users who clog up the feed with jerseys that nobody buys should be send to federal prison for two weeks. Sorry, letting my inner Trump out.

From a recent Verge article: "The company does not plan on charging a fee to conduct transactions, which gives it an edge over those competing services. Instead, Facebook gains what it has always been most hungry for: users’ precious eyeballs and more of their time each and every day." That makes sense too, especially where Facebook membership has probably decreased with the advent of newer social media products like Snapchat and Instagram.

NYIJM29 Posted February 11, 2017 Report Share Posted February 11, 2017 (edited) I mod the not-game worn group with a few others who post on here. The "not posting a price" drives me insane. However, when I asked if I am allowed to delete posts without prices, the other mods told me not to do so without warning. If you ever see something in those groups, please report it and I'll take care of it. Edited February 11, 2017 by NYIJM29 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see a reason to not give someone a fair warning, and a few hours to fix the problem, and if they don't fix the problem then you can delete the post. If you just delete the post, they won't know what they did wrong, and they'll just post it again the same way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

furiousd Posted February 11, 2017 Report Share Posted February 11, 2017 You know, if I had a potential big-money gamer, I'd probably pay to get it authenticated, rather than sell it for far less as a "maybe" gamer. Seems like the upside would be worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ Rhea Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 Loads of Preds for sale Here is what is not for sale: Captains, Skrastins, Timonen, Ryan Ellis, Forsberg and jerseys from 2015-16. I am also partial to tough guys so many of those won't be available but a few will. That still leaves probably 80+ available. I take it leaves the s*** noone wants https://www.flickr.com/photos/126224642@N02/sets/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes it easier for me and the potential buyers when it comes time to sell. I remember a year back someone was selling his entire collection and there were literally hundreds on his list. Thank god he had it all on an excel spreadsheet otherwise if it was on flickr or another photo sharing site I would have gone mad clicking through everything.

Its less fun if you have to go back and consult a confusing list to see what is or is not for sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White jerseys worn by player names that end with either A, G, J, K, M, P, R, S, X, Z that were worn on seasons that ended with an odd number in the month of January in games that took place east of the Mississippi who are neither a captain or alternate captain.
