If there is a big enough push I'm happy to add a new forum for members.

Rules would apply the same as for sellingand all trade business would be done via Private Messaging only.

Bulova only please.

Although what is traded within PMs is not the business of this website.

The problem I have with trading is that I can't seem to let go!

I'm wondering about the best way to implement this. If I create a new Forum container it will just end up with dead posts once trades have finished and offer no help to anyone in the future. I prefer a system were by once the watch/watches in question have been traded they are then removed from the system.

I may look to create a 7 day listing system where watches can be offered for trade before they are automatically removed by the system. The listing can then (if needed) be recreated as required.

The simple alternate is to have another check box on a watch listing along with the 'For Sale' checkbox for 'Trade offered' and the creation of a seperate page listing watches tagged as trade.

Thoughts/comments welcome.

I know I'm new here and don't want to sound self-serving but I would like to see a trade catagory. I'm sure most of us have parts as well as watches that we would consider for trade. I like the idea of the 7 day listing.

Thx Admin, Great idea but I'll pass for now. I already have enough on my plate to keep track of. As for parts, I'm always open to helping other members find what they need.

In lieu of  a dedicated catagory for WTT, WTB, WTS is it alright to post such, and if so, which forum should it be posted in? Bulova related only, of course.

Thanks

Darren

I'm late to this party, but it sounds like a great idea.
