Re: ad bumping
Talkbass.com , the bass guitar players' forum, has a mechanism that only allows a person to bump his/her ad(s) every 24 hours, and you can bump your thread(s) without having to make the "bump" post, thus saving bandwidth, and not letting anybody know how many times a thread has been bumped.

Re: ad bumping
Is a goosebump the same thing as a "bump"?
(or is one even required to have an actual goose?)

Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

Who is going to police this new rule?

Re: ad bumping
Surprise, surprise but I for once totally agree with Bloke, just ask a reasonable price if you want to sell your stuff quickly. If you're selling some normal stuff and it isn't sold after a few weeks then the price is to high.bloke wrote:' recently sold a unique (and not cheap) instrument here (in one day) for more-than-asking w/no bumping.SteveP wrote:I'm not so sure about that. In some instances, if a somewhat unique item is offered for sale, it may take some time for just the right buyer to see the ad. That item might well be worth the asking price but to only a limited number of buyers. It might sometimes take a few bumps for that right buyer to come along. Should the seller be forced to sell the 'unique' item at less than its value to the 'right buyer'? I don't think so.bloke wrote:Those are great suggestions, but I still think that a price reduction should be a requirement as well."
formula: pricing $2200 things at $2200 (not $3800), pricing $4500 things at $4500 (not $5600), pricing $6800 things at $6800 (not $8400), pricing $12,000 things at $12,000 (not $18,000), etc.
If asking a used/production item for 90% of advertised-new, three years of daily bumping will only accomplish an added post count to TubeNet. Typically, the maximum retail selling price of a really nice used current-production instrument hovers at-or-below wholesale dealer cost.
