Things that go BUMP in the night

[Daniel]

@Stosta is right, the Classifieds do refer to it that more than one BUMP per day will be frowned on.

• If your item is not selling, then either it's the wrong item or the wrong price. Consider a price drop instead of repetitive bumping without changing the price. The right item at the right price normally sells quite fast.

This is exactly what I am referring to ..... bumping with no price drop ... on the flipside though serial bumping might also be construed as a 'desperate sell' so be prepared to be lowballed like crazy just a thought .....

On a side note and what uncle @Deckie so expertly sarcastically mentioned , the 2nd hand market has become a joke ,,,,

I've noticed something in the classifieds and it's bumping the hell out of me .... I might bump some heads , but I don't really care

Serial Bumpers ..... those forumites that bump their for sale posts EVERY day ... and I'm not singling anyone out here , as we all do it ....

Now I don't know what the rules are , but normal For Sale etiquette is normally once a week bump (if no movement) , or if a price drop occurs , or one of the items on sale is sold/traded.

It seems like its just a free for all in the Classies , and bumping left right and center to the point where I don't even bother bumping my thread anymore as it will just get bumped down again.

Not to start a flame war , but what else irks you with regards to Sales posts/threads ?

My top 3 :

- BUMPing for no other reason than getting on page 1
- Other ppl posting on my thread "GLWS" or "So much want!"
- Mis-information in titles ....

What irks me: When I have replied to a Sale, showing potential interest, and other peeps comment on my comment. They're not there to buy so it's none of their business.

@Daniel guess what....

Bump....
If no one takes it today I'm removing it from the sales thread...

Did the above tactic ever work on anyone ?

The BUMP is not such a big problem in the Classifieds, but lately @Silver and @Jengz are sending me BUMPS via PM if they think that I have missed any classifieds - I think it is part of their conspiracy

Looking at your recent epic vape mail posts I think you might be right Watson....
