kookboy · 08-11-2006, 04:12 AM

Which do you prefer ?

1 - Old NSMB Buy and Sell ?

or

2 - New NSMB Buy and Sell ?

... and why/reason.

kookboy · 08-11-2006, 04:18 AM

Based on the trailing smiley's... I'm for the old format.

Why ? Tried and true. Lots of sales. Easy searches. Bumping.

SysCo. · 08-11-2006, 04:20 AM

my only complaint about the old buy and sell..
was at points it;d get over crowded..
and over bumped.

drummer_dil · 08-11-2006, 05:00 AM

i prefer the new, easier to find what im looking for

freakonaleash · 08-11-2006, 05:01 AM

old was way better. People can contact you directly on the forum, and "guests" couldnt post. You could see who you where buying from better.

I liked the old one. Right now there is no-one biting at all... and I'd like to have money to hold us thru till our budget is all good.

can't then both be run at the same time? all the listings are held in a database, so it would/should be simple to modify the old page to read from the DB for the new buy/sell. I liked the old one as i would read it on my blackberry and did not have to wait for tables and images to load.

But the new Buy&Sell is great for everyone, not just BB readers. Such as the buy and sell you guys (i think...) are referring to just on the boards, was good for on the boards, but what about the millions of other people who dont post on the boards and dont want to make an account? I believe it is easier this way, you dont need to send emails for pics, and you see exactly what your looking for easier, not scrolling through every fully on the site, and reading every ad, you just look at the pic!

Rosscofat · 08-11-2006, 07:13 AM

got to be old.. I havent sold 1 thing. before I was selling everything.

freakonaleash · 08-11-2006, 07:53 AM

there we go. Switch it back, the guy with 17,547 posts agrees. I think that should count for everything.

C.Lee · 08-11-2006, 08:08 AM

Prefer OLD. its much better and easier.. than looking through pages and pages of ads... maybe they should upload pics to OLD style buysell.

switch · 08-11-2006, 11:24 AM

Old.

The old setup seemed to have more ads, but maybe that's just my perception.
