Active Alternatives to Ebay for selling cues.

[Sev]

I had not sold anything on Ebay for quite a while. I recently sold a couple of cues and got sticker shock from all the fees.

Has anybody in the community discovered any sites that have an active sales section for pool related items?

Good question, Sev. I'm sitting on several cues because I don't want to get robbed by the eBay fees. Unfortunately, eBay has a ton of potential buyers so a sale is more likely there.

So far I have 3 sites.

Seems the peeps dont want it advertised.

Here's where I would go. No fees.

That's what I was thinking. Seems like since the rule changes here it's all back to normal - post what you want and sell it.

I have a site www.poolcuemarket.com that is indexed daily by google and I encourage people to post their stuff there and then copy/paste the whole listing here.

It's small right now and will be for years to come but it can't hurt to post there and the format is exactly the same as far as the posting language goes.

We encourage raffles and auctions which are frowned upon here. The site is not ad-supported and so there are not any concerns about stepping on the toes of advertisers.

To maximize exposure I would post the for sale ads at many forums, as many as allow it, here is a partial list of them http://poolcuemarket.com/showthread.php?tid=5

Its rife with cueologists that are as often correct in their analysis as the weatherman is at predicting the weather

I signed up on your site a few weeks ago.
I bet you were surprised. :wink:

Sometimes you just need a place to vent. The owner of JA provided that for me.

Not really. It's not a personal thing with me. I put that site up to test out some things I have ideas on. Who is a member and who isn't doesn't really matter as long as they don't troll or spam the forum.

2 things I dont do.
Needling you on the occasion is good sport though. :wink:

Thanks for the PM's

Any other sites out there?

 

[Sev]

Looks like its pretty lean out there.

To bad it looks like Amazon auctions only has production equipment.

Did you ever come up with some alternate sites worth messing with or where you did put something up.
