Yer i'm with that. I think the 100-200 post thing is good. Better than OCAU's 90 days thing as someone can sign up and then just not use the account for ages, then access the For Sale forums afterwards. Aussie's only sounds very good, keeps shipping to a minimum.

Dunno what heatware.com is, show me a link.

[eva2000]

heatware is a trading feedback site where buyers/sellers sign up for an a/c and leave their trading feedback after each trade

i.e. my heatware link http://www.heatware.com/eval.php?id=36231

Been slack in reminding folks that i sold gear to give me as a seller some feedback heh. Also some folks mixed the USA month-date-year format heh

[KingYubbo]

Ah... Kind of like the Ebay system?

[eva2000]

Yeah like ebay's trader feedback/review system

hmmm maybe i should see if i can find a script to host myself for our own members trading feedback so i can have more control over the management of it.

Sounds interesting

As the folks here are more ram literate, it should make sales a bit easier

[KingYubbo]

Yet another great idea by eva2000.

[eva2000]

heh ArTy your comment gave me an idea for another requirement

- seller has to have posted a mini review of what their memory is capable of on i4memory.com forum for sale to proceed?
