trade section suggestion

**gmbos1** · 01-17-2010, 09:02 PM

hi all.i'm only a newbie here so feel free to shot me down for any damning suggestions but i have been trawling the trade sections for a new investment and it pees me off big time when you see something you like and by the time you get to the end of the add and it says CONUS

Now i know what CONUS means after making an offer for a rep and insisting on it being sent to europe and being refused as its CONUS only

my suggestion would be that if it is a restricted delivery if should say it on the title of the add or a least one of the first things you read in the sale.

example:FS: Omega Planet Ocean Orange 45mm(CONUS)

Rant over

Not needed. 99% of members will send overseas if you give them a PM.

agreed.

i always list my sales as CONUS but somehow always end up shipping oversees.

...if you were talking about my 112h up for sale now PM me and we can work something out

see,thats what i mean.why do you not list as conus PREFERRED but will ship international if costs are covered.

If/When i see Conus i just exit add so you may have lost a sale recently

I think putting "WWIDE" (world wide shipping) or "CONUS" (continental United States only shipping) in the title is a great idea. A number of members don't want to deal with customs issues with a rep watch and I don't blame them. Losing a sale is better than losing the watch and money and this makes it clear without the hassle of trading PMs and emails and waiting for responses. It only takes a second to add it to a title.

Why not do it?

Your ideas are welcome and we have tried it in the past. We have requested for people to add in their tittle to put ConUS or WWS and its not always done. We can make it part of our sales form and this is the idea we are pursing right now...
