WTB: Dragon Warrior VII for playstation 1.

So much 3DS version news recently lit regrets of selling my copy a million years ago. Figured I would ask as I'm hoping to avoid EBay prices, if there is any chance.

I'm located in Canada. Message me if wiling to part with a copy.

No point in more rules, no one follows them anyway. Someone hit a nerve and we kinda stopped calling people out on photo rules too, I'd love to see prices on every item but it won't happen.
 
I don't bother with posts without prices anymore. My assumption is you want more than you should be asking. Otherwise you would want people to know the price so you could quickly make deals.

Just my $.02

as many others have already expressed in the past page, I would really like to make a new rule about setting a price for the items someone wants to sell.

Often times I see there are sellers who like to post their products without a price to encourage PM prices from potential buyers, which are a kind of auction since they accept the best price the buyers want to give it. There are several instances where I get rejected a potential buy because "someone else offered me a best price, raise yours or I'll sell it to that person."

The rule of "always include a price" is something I've seen a lot of forums and marketplaces have been needing to include because of scheming practices like the one I posted here.

I don't think we should require a price if the seller doesn't want to but no matter how badly I might want something I don't bother IMing for price. I see it as a hassle and just move on. That's just me though.

Working on getting a list of SNES and N64 games to sell as well. Just ask me if there's one in particular you're looking for, I might have it.

•Last but certainly not least, a cold cast ceramic figure set from Final Fantasty VI. It's the Opera scene featuring Celes, the castle, and a stone piece that holds a title card for the scene. All pieces interior are in perfect condition. The only wear to the item is the exterior box. It's a bit yellowed and has some impact kinks on it. The entire thing is slipped around the styrofoam that the ceramic piece rests in.

Link to bigger picture.

It's a very rare collectible, officially licensed product I picked up when I visited Japan in 2001 (Collector number 1909/3000). I simply don't have anywhere to put it and it might go better with someone else's collection. There was an EBay auction for about $600 a while ago. I've seen one go for almost a grand before. I'm not quite so greedy. Asking $450 (plus shipping if there's a great deal of extras requested or its going overseas).

Just send me a PM and we can work something out.

I'm wanting to fill in some holes in my Mega Man / Capcom history, so yeah. Thanks for reading!
 
WTT:

1 months EA access code.

what i want is any xbox one download that is cheap (£5 or less) as a download/gift code.

It is a European (UK) Code, if that helps.

Also the code that is to be traded also must work on a european Xbox account.
 
Not listing a price actually hurts sellers more than buyers. I mean, sure you might get that one person willing to pay you a premium (or a bidding war), but most will just ignore your post.
 
Yeah, the ebay market for this isn't working. Trying here again with lower price:

All games are complete with manual, case, and disc/cartridge unless otherwise noted. Same thing with scratches, I take very good care of my games and will note if there’s anything visible. If the game originally came with some sort of download code, IT HAS BEEN REDEEMED. I often leave the slip in the case and you’re free to try it, but it’s most likely been redeemed already. Also the cartridges still have my save files on them, you'll have to delete them yourself or feel free to use my saves if you're a weirdo, lol.

Shipping info:
Shipping to the Continental (48) US states will be $3 for the first game and $1 for each additional. So if you want 4 games, shipping will be 3+1+1+1 = $6. Shipping will be USPS First Class which includes tracking.

Shipping to Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and worldwide (including Mexico and Canada) will need to be calculated on an individual basis. Just let me know what you want, I’ll weigh it and use the USPS calculator. If the shipping is a deal breaker and you no longer want the games, I’m perfectly fine with that. Just let me know.

I accept paypal friends/family option for payment or buyer pays fees, please.

If two individuals want to work out a deal together through private messages, let them. Many positive BST transactions have transpired through private offers.

Imposing a mandatory price rule on everyone just because of a select few socially inept individuals who are incapable of working out a deal privately is completely asinine.

I didn't realize there was such ire for not listing prices. When I don't list a price it's because market values are all over the place for certain kinds of items, and because I'm open to so many different kinds of game or partial game partial payment trades that it's easier to work something out with the individual. 95% of the time someone contacts me about a game I find a way to get them the game for around what they hoped to pay for it. That also helpfully accounts to a degree for people wanting to negotiate. Maybe it's just because I really like negotiating (as a seller or buyer) that this hasn't been an issue for me as far as I know, though now I'm wondering how many potential buyers haven't reached out for this reason. FWIW, I always have (gladly!) sold every item below the lowest sold or listed price on any online retailer.
 
For what it's worth, I'm well aware that some people would like a price requirement added to the OP. However, every time the issue has come up, there have been an equal amount of people say that they don't want to have the rule.

While I do have an opinion on the matter, I try to stay as neutral as possible when it comes to stuff like this. If a majority of users asks that the rule be added, then that's exactly what I will do. If not, the rules will stay as they are.

Agreed.

I pretty much just gloss over any post without a price, unless it's an item I want immediately. At that point, I just offer the floor price of the market value. Worst thing they can do is say no, or actually offer out a price.

Posts without prices do not hugely diminish the quality of this thread.

We don't have to enforce a price rule. I will just happily avoid those sellers. Yes, I know there are many, many honest sellers in here that don't list prices. Altenatively, compare for cheapest price and offer something in that region.

FWIW, I always have (gladly!) sold every item below the lowest sold or listed price on any online retailer.

I tend to ignore posts/items without a price because to me it doesn't read as "oh hey an opportunity to negotiate," but instead I interpret it as "this person wants some ridiculous amount and I'm not even going to bother." On rare occasions I do reach out though, but 99% of the time it's to ask them how much they are looking to get, not to make an offer.

Also, just because someone posts a price doesn't meant you can't negotiate. Sometimes someone has a price that's more than I'm willing to pay, but I at least have a baseline of what they are looking to get and I counter-offer appropriately, and usually we work something out.
 
Quick question! I just bought something using Paypal friends and family and Paypal charged me a fee. I've never seen that before. Is this something new??? It was only 5 cents, so completely inconsequential. I just thought it was weird.
