Another BST section for a paid seller?

[Rich Klein]

Leon's job as owner of this board is to do his best to monetize the time and effort he spends doing this.

If I understand the concept correctly, what I would do if I were Leon is to do one of two things

1) To put the PAID BST Listings in BOLD and put them on top of the listings.

2) Create a NEW link, similar to the BST link and let them really have some pub,

Thanks for the suggestions Rich. So far I still like the idea of having the section being proposed be 1 BST section just like the other 9 BST sections. It would be below the current Live Auction section and above the 19th Century BST section. That way if people want to ignore those 2 top sections it's easy to do. And I like having the Live Auction one at top as it needs more attention, again, imo.... Always open to listening to good suggestions so thanks again...

Would the new paid seller be excluded from posting in the other BST? Would we see advertisements referencing his listings on his page? Will this new deal significantly effect the amount of outbound email from Net54 ie) the new seller is running a sale so a mass email gets sent to all members?

I wouldn't expect them to list in the other sections. So that won't be an issue of advertisements elsewhere unless they are extraordinary in nature. The seller(s) will not have the ability to send emails from the system. They would have no more allowances than other members in that respect.

If it helps the site, great.

My thoughts are go for it. I have had many dealings with Sean, and they have all been positive. Might be a very fresh addition to our forum.....

I agree with Kevin. I very much welcome something new and if Leon is good with it, I feel he would know best. It's on a trial basis, so if it doesn't work out, it will disappear.

The thread format is really terrible for auctions. Unless the format is different it will be a mess and I would probably avoid it.

1) I think it's awesome - and that the proceeds should go towards increasing the PM inbox size!

2) Sean is young - but he's becoming a real hobby mover, shaker and play maker!

Poof.....the PM inbox is now 250 for all registered members, instead of 100. If there are system issues (I doubt there will be) I reserve the right to set it back.
