Buy/Sell/Trade check? How's it going over there?

I think most would agree that it would be courteous to all B/S/T users that if you have...say, 9 different small lots of similarly valued T206's...these could be combined into one or two threads rather than taking up half of the first page with a separate thread for each and then repeatedly bumping EACH thread to update every time a card is sold. Posts can easily be edited to update such information without bumping the thread to the top, thus allowing a fair amount of exposure to others' threads.

To quote the FAQ:

"Items should be consolidated in the BST area, into one thread, when appropriate. In other words don’t list more than a few similar items in single threads, in the same BST area, at once. IF you do this, they will most likely be deleted and asked to be posted again in a consolidated fashion. You should not bump a BST thread to the top very often (every 3-4 days at most) as it is discourteous to other posters."

+1 I think we can call a spade a spade. Klrbee posted 7 or 8 threads all selling T206s and then bumped each time one of the cards was sold. I posted as well somewhere during in that deluge. I felt the need to bump my thread at some point the next day when some cards were sold just to get it somewhere off of the second page. At any rate, I would rather not have bumped my thread at all and probably shouldn't have. But, the above practice encourages other bad behaviors. Especially from me

It's good to be reminded of the rules now and again.
