What if we could trade, sell, or buy games right on the site. We could make offers, or see if someone has a game your looking for at a good price. I don\'t know if this has been tried, or if it\'s more trouble than its worth. Just throwing it out.
-
I like the idea. Although I don\'t have crap anyone would want. I could definitely see where i could buy a game for cheap,
-
All i have that i dont want is NBA Live 2001 and who the hell would want that, hehe. I also think its a good idea.
-
hell I would. I don\'t hav eany basketball games. But I have nothing to trade you. Damn, wish I had lots-o-games
-
It\'s a good idea, IMO. A forum where you could trade or sell games with other members... very very interesting. I like the idea.
-
yeah, but id only be willing to trade with long term members.... and if somone dont get there game back in perfect condition there be pissed, and say they dont give money back.... what they get banned..
good idea, but cant see it working
-
Here it is implemented into a forum...TXB.
Click Me. (http://teamxbox.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=30)
I never trade any of my games, but I think it\'s a neat idea.
-
I think a WTB,FS,Trade forum would be a GREAT idea. Old consoles, gaems..peripherals etc.
I could see some getting ripped on of deals and such, but people could also use COD and other forms of safe trade like if a long standing and well respected member were to have some sort of consign service.
MOst forums from automotive to home theatre have these. Id be all for it.
-
my racing forums have similar trading posts, and they\'re quite popular.
-
I would only trade with the people I talk to all the time. Well, anyone but Vapor. He probably would spood all over the disc to be funny.
-
I would only trade with myself...because I hate you all
-
mm didn\'t like the idea, he would already replied here.
-
or maybe he already replied, but no-one read it...
it\'s really one of those tree in the forest things.
-
i think it is a very good idea. all the other gaming sites ive gone to they have had them they work very very well
-
I\'m bringing this thread back to life. Aftrer trading a couple of games over at TXB and XBA, I have to say that a swap meet, or trading post forum would be an incredible addition to the site. No more getting 1/3 the value of a game on a trade-in at EB, instead you can trade your beaten and disliked games for things that suit your needs better.
-
im for it, BUT i will have to approve of the disclaimer that states that psx2central.com, it\'s host, bjorn, clyde, nor I will be held responsible for any deals gone wrong
in other word, if u make a deal and get burned, DO NOT cry to us
so...when this is written and submitted to me, i\'ll make the forum
-
Make it in the disclaimer that Titan and Kopking are responsible for all bad dealings. That would be excellent.
-
I\'ll see what I can do....
-
here\'s a basic disclaimer;
IN NO EVENT SHALL THE OWNER OF THIS SITE OR THEIR AUTHORIZED (WHATEVER YOU WANT TO CALL YOURSELF) BE LIABLE FOR LOST PROFITS OR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS SITE, THE SERVICES ON THIS SITE OR OTHERWISE, HOWEVER ARISING, INCLUDING CLAIMS FOR NEGLIGENCE.
PSX2CENTRAL.com is not responsible for ANY transactions which occur through it’s Trading Forums. We only provide you with a place to make the trades happen
In addition, Back-ups, copies, duplicates, CD-Rs, CD-RWs, and like materials are not permitted on this site. Only original published material is permitted. Any user that posts copied or pirated material on this site will be banned.
(you can edit this as you see fit)
-
I used to trade cards online, a good thing to do is if your buying, use a check because that way you can prove you paid. There\'s a thing called Mail Fraud you can be arrested for so I don\'t believe that anyone here would try anything given they have to provide a name(REAL), adress, etc.
-
yeah, mail fraud is a felony and any type of rip off can be taken care of easily through local police. So if you pay, always pay with check, or paypal, or something traceable.
-
I wouldn\'t trade with any passer-byers anyway. Just the people who have been here for a while. I don\'t have anything good anyway.
-
yeah, if I were to trade here it would be with the old fellas. or if I traded with a newb, they\'de have to send first.

No problem whats so ever. All of the other boards I am a member of have had similar disclaimers and havent had any troubles in 6 years.
Im very much looking forward to this
-
yeah, my dead Idea comes back to life...
YEAH ME!!!!
-
well, I just sent mm a basic disclaimer. hopefully this thing will get off the ground.
-
Sounds great. I\'m willing to trade: The Bouncer, SSX Tricky, Timesplitters, FF7 and Chrono Cross.
-
i\'d like chrono chross...
-
Costs will be a problem. If I sell fastson for example my finished BG for about 25€, and costs are 6 or 7€...
-
by costs, do you mean shipping? If so, that\'s just something we all have to burden. I myself don\'t have to worry about it much, because I\'ll only trade with North American members. I just completed 2 trades over a TXB, and it only cost me 4 bucks to ship 2 games coast to coast, with first class mail, and it was only 3.50 to ship one game coast to coast.
-
shipping is paid by reciever if paying money... if its a trade there should be no issue... but trading overseas... man get your credit card out.
-
Hurricane I\'ll give you Chrono Cross for the first round pick in Season III.
;)
-
Dude, Vapor, I\'ll take TimeSplitters. I\'ll even save you shipping costs!
-
And in turn your giving me... what?
-
EDIT: But seriously... Brian I heard you had SOCOM... I know SOCOM > Timesplitters, but I can throw in me buying your lunch for two days.
-
So does anyone know if this thing is going to get off the ground or not?
-
I have ATV Off Road Fury, SSX, and a couple other really old games. I would like FFX, MGS, NBA Streets, Silent Hill 2
Other good shit you guys probably have just lying around.
-
I personally don\'t feel comfortable trading online so I don\'t care.
-
mm, does it look like this idea is going to be implemented?
-
TTT..its been awhile since the last post..(02/07)
Whats up?
-
It was 2/8 since the last post :)
-
thats an eternity for him...
-
i was waiting for someone else to do it, ehhe
i\'ll make it tomorrow
-
I had somewhat given up on this, thinking that the silence was a way of letting me know that the idea was canned. However, now I\'m as excited as a little school girl, seeing as though I\'ve racked up 150 posts in the TXB trading post over the past month (I don\'t post in their other forums, just their trading post).
-
I thought the idea was dead, but it seems like we got things going again.
-
See what happens with a tad bit of persistence? :D
Thanx mm!!!!!
-
done...dont say i didnt warn you
