Wouldn't this be a suitable for a suggestion?

 

Golden Age

Silver Age

Bronze Age

Copper/Modern Age

 

Do away with the Mixed Age

hm

 

 

I like your way of thinking. :takeit:^^

 

Sometimes the easiest things in life are the hardest to actually do doh!

 

Actually I thought this idea was discussed but was determined it would be too hard for people listing GA/SA and BA era books at the same time, to run and maintain 3 separate sales threads in 3 seperate rooms.

 

I would not mind it as a buyer to be able to selectively click on what I want to look at most, but understand why they had to lump in several eras together.

 

Not to mention there are times I see a book I want to buy that I otherwise would not have seen if the Era's were parsed out, same goes for people who might not normally buy GA books, but happen upon one they would because it is listed among some SA books they clicked to see. And as a seller that added exposure is a good thing.

 

I don't think there will ever be the perfect answer, just one that doesn't suck as bad as another depending on your perspective.

I would like it to be easier to see whats fpr sale and when they were listed, like a consignment site. But I understand that the system now reward patience and digging to find treasure, so thats fair .

I suppose there might be some cross-purchases made, but I believe the majority of buyers already have in mind what they'd like to buy, and having it broken down makes it that much simpler.

There should be a dedicated GA sales thread, but not in this section. It should obviously be in the Market Section.

 

Why Mark? All the GA buyers go through here and they need to be redirected to a sales thread if it's out there. I see no problem having a self policed, self contained selling thread over here. All it does is keep it tidy.

 

I think anyone who frequents this Section is intelligent enough to know where GA books are posted for sale on these boards. Obviously this is going to be something "personal" for each person, but I for one do not want this Section turned into a multi-thread used car sales flea-market (and my dad is a used car dealer so I can say this!) when it has fought against the odds and the discussions here have generally remained intellectual and polite. This Section, and the Market-Place Section, are pretty much the only reasons why I even frequent the boards nowadays.

 

Plain and simple. It is just not necessary. There is a market-place thread. Why mix them?

I agree, we should not "mix" market place with discussion place, but I do think the market place should clearly differentiate between GA , SA, etc

Ok, I probably should have said "most everyone", but I wanted to be nice. :)

I've puchased impulse buys from era's I'm not anticipating buying from when I initially take a look, so it works in a "johnny, shut up" kind of way. Like candy and comic books in the check out at the grocery.

 

What I'd like to see is a trading thread.
