Suggestion: new demand for title in sales-threads.

**qed** · 09-19-2012, 11:44 AM

Hey guys

I know im new to the forum, and maybe you have already discussed this, but for me its very frustrating to open sales-threads in the forum and looking at great watches, only to find out that problably 60% is for sale only inside USA.

It would be a lot of help if threads like that was branded in the title with the correct FS first, and then somewhere in the title a CONUS ONLY.

Would save me a lot of time if I didnt have to click on threads to find out that I cant get the watch anyway. It would also save me a lot of sadness

Yes good idea!!

Idea is not bad, but there a still a lot of sellers who advert with Conus only and then sell the watch to Europe....

So even if some deals look like Conus only, if I like the watch I send the seller a PM if he is willing to ship to Europe....

And for the Deals ONLY in the EU, we have here on the forum a EU-Deals only section

If they change their mind and want to ship out of conus, they can just change their title, or dont change their mind all the time and just brand it right the first time :P

I think this could be an improvement.

great idea

Yep, it's a very good idea it actually came up on one of the 'major' gen forums also recently as it was a noticeable issue with the sales sections. Not sure how that went of even if it is easy to implement but it allows people the freedom to look if they want to but it gives more clarity to how open a seller is to posting overseas.
It could take the form of 'Conus only' or Conus preferred' or 'Worldwide Ship (see details)', the same could be applied to EU type sales as some wont ship outside EU.
At least it would offer some further clarity and if the seller wants to add further details/exceptions then they can be added in the listing.
Good suggestion qed!

Shouldn't you extend it to EU only, UK only, on and on and on.

On and on and on? Really? How many of those threads do you see compared to conus-only threads?

More Rules = More Work = Less Play =

JK, as others have stated just PM the seller. If I have an item sit for more than a day or two I'm usually open to shipping anywhere. I just shipped two items overseas from conus only threads.
