I don't get this....some sellers are e-mailing buyers and calling them names even though they just helped them by buying their card? I don't understand....can you give an anonymous example?

I'd prefer not to. Suffice it to say that some people could use a brush up on customer service skills.

Wow, if I were a buyer and the seller was calling me names, I'd just walk away from the transaction, that simple. You reap what you sow.

This may be a stupid or uninformed question but wouldn't it be best if, say, after all the cards in a particular post are sold, traded etc., the post then be able to be deleted? That way it doesn't show up anymore and there is no confusion. Let me know if I'm wrong or if it wouldn't work for whatever reason.

Actually, this is something I don't like to happen (deleting BST, or any, threads). If all of the threads with sold items were deleted it would look like nothing at all was going on and less folks would post. I really prefer them not to be deleted. If you want to take out specifics ( like the price etc....) then that is fine. If anyone continually deletes after I ask for it not to be done then eventually you won't need to delete anything.

And I know full well this was an innocent question but I need to give my view and reasoning. best regards

ps...no question is stupid......it was a very good question imo...

So, Leon, after the card or cards in a thread are sold, you want the thread title to remain the same regardless?

No, that is not what I said. You are more than welcome to change a title and put "SOLD" in the title or anywhere in the thread. You can also take out specifics to have some confidentiality. It was mentioned that we might delete (which only mods can do) threads once items were sold. I don't want threads deleted altogether for the reason stated. best regards

Thanks Leon, I never thought about the "looks like nothing's going on" aspect.
