I would like to request a subforum created for dealer or company in the handphone sales section.. Example :- Selling handphone, Memory Cards, Simpacks, Accessories, etc..
Each thread must be created with proper and neat pricelist which must includes the brand, model and price of the item... The seller must includes contact number, fullname, location, etc.. to avoid scammer..
Those who unable to follow that.. The thread will be deleted..
Handphone and accessories sales section will remains for those who sell single item or used items aka Personal Item for sales..
It is fair for dealer and seller.. We can sell our new item in subforum and they can sell their used item in the handphone sales section.. It's not fair if we bump our thread which has about 4~5 threads for each seller..
Handphone section need subforum for dealer or company becoz there are many dealers around which sell handphone, memorycard, accessories, simpacks, etc..
How's that? Do consider about it..

LYN has no obligation to create sub-forums for these 'dealers'. If it does create one, it is out of goodwill.

I can very well predict that one of the criteria for se7en to consider is participation in the forum. Coming here solely to sell your stuff is not what the forum wants. Remember, this forum is not a forum primarily to sell stuff.

Oh yeah.. forgot about that.. Not a place to sell stuff.. Thanks ya..

Don't take my word for it though, I am not the admin. I'm merely predicting based on responses for questions like these in the past.

Nah.. It's ok.. good thing though u reminds me.. I've forgotten.. Lowyat.net is not a place for us to do trading ..
BUT then i want this sub-forum becoz there's many sellers in the handphone corner.. now also having problems.. I don't know why the mod/admin closed all the thread created by dealer / company.. They sure have their reasons...
I just want the subforum to be clean with seller's name, address, contact, etc.. to avoid scammers becoz nowadays got many people come out wif watersets or non-existent phone..

How many dealers are there?
Do u really think it's enough to dedicate a specific subforum to them (and you) ?

My question is this - why should we allow dealers and businesses to advertise their products here for free? How does that benefit Lowyat.NET (the community)?

Badawi is right. Garage Sales was setup for members to sell thier personal products. During the early days, it was all members 2nd hand stuff or 'won in contest' sorta things. Nowadays its all dealers, distributers and people who come and go. Half the people you mentioned in your list up 2 post are not even senior members and 2 or 3 of them have more than 1 thread selling different products which i bet come from the same shop/supplier..

Yeah... I know.. I already forgotten that .. Lucky Sesshoumaru reminds me..
Anyway, nowadays also many people selling watersets.. Hope can control a bit..
Btw, moderator team still haven't let us know why all the dealer / companies must close their thread..

I guess your ans can be found here..

http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...3&#entry7688813

Nvm guyz.. Thanks for the advise.. I'll follow what is given there..

It's not really fair for us.. Only mine, gtoracer1 and bdl's thread got closed.. There are still many handphone dealer / companies still selling happily..
Btw, i am just a freelance.. Not promoting for company or something similiar..

just a suggestion: maybe the dealers from companies can pay an amount of money to have their thread up here, in the new subforum? like renting a space in here. it can be done since lowyat.net has a really big population.

the forum, the dealer, and the consumer benefits from it.

I also got think of that.. How much does it cost, badawi_rocks ?
But other seller leh? some people no need pay?

only apply on those affiliated with companies, like phone shop and pc shop.

Garage Sales was meant for selling unused personal stuff, not new-bulk-from-stock items, wasn't it?

Please dont make lowyat.net another lelong.com way off the forum original objectives.

BRo, why only me, bdl and gtoracer1's thread got closed? Other seller still selling happily.. Please advise.. Not fair for us..

Use or to the mod/staff. They will respond to it. But beware as stated
and give them some time as most of them are either studying or working while doing the classy work of moderating.

As mentioned, do hit the report button to make us aware of these topics. We have limited man power and we can't possibly clamp down everything at once. Thanks alot

Wah .. I'll be the bad guy if i ever report other seller..

All the report will remains confidential.
Only mod/staff/admin will knows. No other people others than them will be able to view the report.

You can PM me the links and i'll close em

Btw, how about those offering flashing services, mem cards and other non-handphone threads?
Will they go under the pricelist thread too ?

@ MOD plz settle this prob asap... coz it seems some r jus freelance.... like other forummer at bulk section.... plz b fair in this occasion so it will b no arguement later.... jus my 2 cents

Ya.. It's not fair coz only handphones seller's thread got closed..

Mod / admin .. i think it's very confusing about the pinned thread created.. many people called me and said want take from me.. Then i said i from Klang.. They kinda blur edi coz below me is the map of other seller which is located in Subang.. That's around 3 people from this morning already..

Actually i was just asking hows the rules now
Didnt mean that only handphones were unfair

But i guess the problem is mainly from the phone dealers, mem cards and stuff so far nothing much if i'm not mistaken

IMO, forumers should be allowed to sell their things here.

It is a win-win situation. I have been telling my friends to buy or sell things at lowyat.net and they are now members of LYN participating in the community.

I would suggest that only members with more than 300 posts be allowed to open a thread in garage sales

No one ever said forummers were not allowed to sell their things here....

tat's unfair to those newbies

n i guess by tat time, all the newbies will try to spam till they reach 300 to sell their stuff

We are formulating a concrete and conclusive decision on this entire subject of dealers selling here.

Stay tuned.

Yeah.. I think many lowyat forummer here also know lowyat through the garage sales section.. Many also said friend intro to me.. Then i intro them to lowyat.net to view my price.. They registered and then finds lowyat.net got so many useful information.. Also contributing ma.. I help increase the lowyat members wor..
I can only remember 2 person that i invited.. neecia and princess_acc..

I was referring to selling handphones

then some sort of rules should be implemented in such that those found spamming will have their post count reset, even if they spam, it's not that easy to get spam 300 posts. At least even if they do, they will think twice before trying to scam someone here. Not every scammer would want to waste a few weeks time just to be able to open a thread to scam people right?

there are tonnes of spammer in our forum, do u think the Mods are so free to monitor the whole forum posts and filter out the spams? i doubt so. just check out the Handphone Section n u'll noe

Yeah... Many spammers there..
