selling birds on this site

[just ask me]

just have been looking back through the posts and it seems that one or two here are useing this site like a advertiseing page to sell there birds is this right and should pll be limted to the amount of birds they put on sale here we all know who they are lol

[jimmy_84]

i thought that people selling birds on here had to donate to the site to help with the cost of running thing's and if not that should be the case

[retired]

i think it should be subject to a donation for each sale or at least a annual nominal donation

[ChrisMaidment08]

or sell them for charity moneys pai to this site

[just ask me]

yes but studs pay big fees to advertise in the weekly mags and someone can use this for free to advertise we all have seen the posts

What's the problem! Fanciers like to buy birds from other fanciers and in the end were all big enough and ugly enough ( in my case ) to make our own minds up. Don't meen to sound agrresive or against you as I have enjoyed all your posts and I ain't a racer but really, what is the problem.(wiseman)

i think access to the for sale section should be for members who pay an annual fee to the site

yeah granted most get alot from this site any way so an annual fee will deter the ones that just come on to sell as its free to do so

Yep, well it's up to the members to ignore these dealers ( non pigeon men ) and they will go somewhere else to try and make a buck. It surely can only be the un-wary that buy from these people.

I like to see birds for sale who ever there from but if sold i agree a 10% fee to the site would be good as then fair to everyone , i have no intension of selling birds on here, i gave my spares away as was overstocked at my new adress, where i have decided just to concentrated on my distance familys . So my sprinters went after i had a round from them ( some two rounds as one yb on nest ).

yes but there are a good lot of new comers come on here too and to the them when they see fancy ads fancy pictures it gets them and this site is perfect for the young ppl coming on to the site and newcomers to the sport

never said anything about costs no where i dont know what the answer is all im saying its starting to creep in fair play chris for replying to the post if another few comes in maybe we can bang our heads to geather and come up with something as  i can see this becomeing a bigger problem in the future

[Guest racer]

i always thought it was a site where you could pick up a bird cheap but it seems that the prices of birds have gone way past anything i could afford i am all for selling to help pay the corn bill

[ChrisMaidment08]

webmaster could do something so only birds from members could be sold

I think my site cost maybe £100 to set up but i got all the time for web design for free so it makes it easier.

 

Any donations we get on my site are at the minute put into an advertising fund.

 

From what i gather donations from members on here go into a fund to help fanciers in need (correct if wrong)

 

Either way i am happy to donate whether i sell or not and will be doing again this year at Blackpool

There are plenty "old hands" like yourself to keep them right if they would just take a breath and reveiw the situation. I raced the birds when I was a teen back in the early seventy's. I have come back to the birds ( not racing) I wish! Now I seem to think I am a complete novice as regards present day birds and the money involved. Don't get me wrong there were Belgian birds, mob flyers, awkward B@*tards, money men, couldn't give a F@ck about the birds men and the like ( people don't change do they ) but I really remember the good caring guys prob like yourself who keep the sport alive so it's up to them to keep the novice on track and free from the vultures who invade all our pastimes.
