Why are you not selling stuff on Bitcoin Classifieds?

Just posted on a shirt on there just to see if the site is still active.

Dozens of views, zeroes of sales.

Yup, that is what I am seeing so far.

Has anyone successfully sold on here? Really considering listing some of our stock but am still trying to convince myself (and my colleagues) that it'd be worth it.

The site looks cool. But there must be a feature like, if someone order anything from classifieds, the funds must go to escrow, and then once the seller fulfill, it gets released, so that 0% scam .

Im pretty sure it has escrow built in otherwise op should probably update his wordpress template to the latest classified theme version. You transfer in btc and the seller is shipped the good.. funds are released manually
by admin.

Im planning to start somethinf similar but to sell goods via auctions and funded by devcoin profit to devcoin model... Would be interesting to maybe collaborate.

As we saw in the final days of Bitmit, escrow was still scammed so badly, that it took the scammer to execute the refund.

You don't need escrow if you are doing a face to face transaction, like BC is structured for.

No refunds on used goods.. wysiwyg.

If person recieves something else then money is not released.. simple?

Not simple if the victim can't trust the escrow operator with their life.

Yes but thats to grow over time as the user base grows, trust is key to any sort of business that may run off with some sort of colateral... your transferring the risk from the anonymous customer to a known entity and it is common for all users... people are usually more comfortable in a herd.

IDK who knew who really ran bitmit; same can be said for any other site, since it's not like they're bonded.

Yea I just sum it up as the cost of doing business.. but slowly customers come that see value.

Hehe nice way of aggressive advertising without being spammy

I have made Quarkslist - a craigslist with Quark - that isn't public yet. But what do you think about having an escrow that doesn't necessarily need a third person? http://quarkescrow.site11.com/

Thats pretty sweet, so its an all in one escrow agent from start to finish? WOuld be interesting to see it in action.

Thanks for the update. Sad to see another old (in bitcoin world) business shutting down.

[BitcoinStuff]

I would want but at this moment the site is down.

[Swordsoffreedom]

The site was down for me but if someone makes a good classified service might be tempted to use it
Will need to check it later

I may add the ability to have people post up their own stuff for auction here:

But I havent decided yet.. because its hard to secure sellers amd buyers without issues.

That's true developing a good reputation system takes time and testing
Anyways it's a neat idea though and thanks for sharing.
