Title: Why were these reports marked bad?
Post by: TECSHARE on May 25, 2019, 02:03:07 AM
I reported this post (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5144595.msg51105885#msg51105885) as belonging in computer hardware and this post (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5145179.msg51135151#msg51135151) as belonging in currency exchange. Why were they marked bad?

In both cases, users sell the goods:
1. MACBOOK PRO 2011 + IPHONE 6S COMBO DEAL
Price (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5144595.msg51105885#msg51105885) is negotiable, and to purchase only one of the two items is also possible;
2. I am selling (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5145179.msg51135151#msg51135151) all these Debit cards with an IBAN.

Both topics are placed in the correct section.

I can maybe see the logic behind #2, but does not a seller sell physical computer hardware? I am not sure what the point of having the section is if literal computer hardware does not belong there. Thanks for the reply.

but does not a seller sell physical computer hardware?

Iphone 6s is not a "computer hardware" , if he was selling only the MacBook then it would fit perfectly in the computer hardware section, so a Macbook in the "Goods" section is an ok thing to have, but an Iphone in the computer hardware is not.

this post (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5145179.msg51135151#msg51135151) as belonging in currency exchange.

Is this guy actually selling physical cards? If not then they belong in Digital goods. Either way they don't belong in Currency Exchange. As for the first report it's probably better in Goods as he is selling two different things but that's a report I probably would have just marked 'handled' and took no action rather than marked it as bad.
