Title: Buy Sell Trade
Post by: gatordad on December 10, 2008, 11:41:48 am
I agree that it's a good idea to list where pickup or non shippable items are located in the title.

But the lack of uniformity by the posters is a very painful read. Some at the front others at the back, now it takes twice as long to scan the thread.

When I have had large items that were pickup only eg: games and other items that I was not willing to ship, I have put the location in the title, but is it necessary for items that are shippable? What's really the point if the seller is willing to ship the item?

Just for discussion......

Shipping costs more/less based on location.

I agree that all BST posts should have a location in the title. All that is really required is Country/State

This is exactly the reason why it's required now.  I won't bother asking someone in the UK for parts, but someone else might.

I don't know how forum software works, but would it be possible somehow to create a form that the user is required to fill out to start a new thread in the BST section (for example, give an error and not post if the user fails to fill out required information).

Just an idea, not really sure if this can even be done here...
