Would you use a separate trading area?

I don't like the idea - just another place to look.
As long as sellers/traders put (FS: FT: WTS: WTT: etc) in the title.

I agree with Jon. We already have a place for trades. Why do we need another one?

[AMBST95]

I voted maybe. Our current forum already has an area for items for trade. No need for its own place separate from buy and sell.

I don't think we need a separate area for trades, the BST is fine. I wouldn't mind seeing a separate area (or zone, if you get my drift) for guys to post about every card they buy - preferably way off the main page.

I think it's a good idea. While I have not had any trades I think adding another option won't hurt.

I also like the idea,..even if its as simple as a place where guys scan in cards that they'd like to trade.....I think before long there would be hundreds of cards posted...and it could stir up a lot of action

Think about how hard it is to find what you are looking for on Net54. Then think about this -- when it finally becomes available, all you have to pay for it is something else. The odds of there being a fit there is probably pretty remote.

Trading works best when you have two collectors sitting across the table from each other looking at each other's collections. Not, when you post one thing available, and seek a specific thing in return.

Just my two cents.

Has there ever been any trading at the Net54 dinner? I've only been to the last two.

I would rather not see it

+1

Agreed

I also would rather see a separate t206 for sale section as opposed to a separate trading section.

I agree with this as well.

This is where I sit as well.

Although I do trades on the board on a semi-regular basis, I'm not sure a trading area would work well for me. I wonder if it gets cluttered with things that I'm not looking for 1988 Donruss, etc. and I don't think I would wade past the first page to see if there is something of interest.

If there's something on the BST of interest, nothing is stopping anyone from offering a trade even if that item is for sale for a cash price. So, in essence, everything is open for trade. Either for a trade of cash or if you can entice them with a card that they want.

I don't see a need for a separate area which would get cluttered due to no delineation of category type.

Me too. Not that it's a bad thing but why have to post and look in two places.
