dal2 Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 I think it only right that those running sales along with those selling on the site should be afforded some form of protection. Those that don’t pay and don’t issue an apology should be named and shamed and be listed as defaulters for a better word. If these people are doing it just to be malicious is bidding by PM playing into their hands? Some bidders prefer pms for their privacy. No stigma attached tae pullin out of the bidding because of the size of your wallet if only you and the vendor know what you bid.

walterbmasson Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 if you realy want a bird to better your team why not bid on open forum also it puts this naming and shaming lark to bed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjc Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 I don't think there is anything with pm's for those who don't want others to see who's bidding on what. As far as I can see the offenders bid on open forum and not by pm! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pjc Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 maybe it could all be solved with auction software. Buyers would have to register and be given or shown as a bidder number so nobody could purposly run somebody else up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a previous sale on another site, a very well known "gold member" (sells lots of birds) made a purchase and sent me numerous cheques, and eventually sent one by registered post but lost the proof of postage on way home from PO and that cheque never arrived either!!

BLACK W F Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 dont agree some guys push others up , thats why i pm your bang on John when certain ones bid otheres will try and run them up seen this all before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
belmont Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 i think Cemetary and LenwadeBob, have a combination of the right and a fair answer . new members to have at least 2oo posts before able to bid , and if established and do not pay a 3 month ban on future sales ,do it twice and a complete ban on sales ?? what do you think?? . andy. Why penalise newbies? I've got no where near 200 posts and have bought birds from sellers and from auctions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest strapper Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 what about this?.........there should be a 3 strike rule..after not paying 1/ request from site(on behalf of the seller) for payment within 7days . if not made then ... 2/ request that payment be made with 3 days. after that.... 3/ unless immediate payment is made then within 48hrs the person will have a suspension untill payment is made. if it is obvious that payment is not forthcoming then ban from this site.

Guest frank dooman Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 maybe we could go about it in a roundabout way i think the oners might well be thinking about the litication thing so just create a bright colour for non payers then we can all see for ourself without any one nameing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
