Marketplace

[Jonathan]

We need a market place to sell things...

[Buzz]

That does sound like a good idea. We'll see what the other members say.

[Cristian]

It is planned.

There is a problem however with selecting proper tool. Which one do you recommend for marketplace ?

This are options:

vbportal

PhotoPost vB Gallery

Photopost Classifieds

Why not just make the marketplace forums like this: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/forumdisplay.php?f=24

Actually we have such thing in place already but is hidden for now.

I was thinking would be more useful to have a dedicated classifieds section. Not sure, i may be wrong...

We maybe need to review advantages and disavantages for this...

[Buzz]

I took a Look at Vbay! and its Interesting...
vBClassified - it looks a bit simple..

cristian: maybe we should just open up what we have for now and then when we get as big as DigitalPoint (or sooner), go with an ad-don mod or even a classifieds mod to start charging a small fee for posting. Some of the bigger forums charge for marketplace posts.

vBay might be good for domain name auctions from within AdminBuzz. cristian, what do you think about that idea? Is there a demo yet of vBay? I like the name by the way, very catchy.

[admin]

I will review tomorrow morning entire situation and make a decision related to marketplace.

[Jonathan]

Well, vBay is a bit over our needs for a marketplace. There are simplified things, better for the masses.
