The End Of Buy,swap And Sell.

[Bianteking]

It will be a shame to lose it as was a great source of getting cars and other items you wanted.

Biante have said that we sould use its auction site, but I don't thinks its worth it compared to "ebay". It cost $5 put a car on biante auction, ebay is about $3 depending on what extras you add. and the extra 10% makes some cars not worth it to buy.

And going through a third party for payment is wrong, you should pay straight into the seller's account and you will know within a day if they have the money, with the third party you have no security when the seller gets the money and if something happens to the third party, it will be along process to fix anything that goes wrong.

I look at the auctions nearly everyday and you don't see many getting sold, I normal contact the seller to do a private sale after the auction so I do get hit with the extra 10%.

I think if they charge $3 per item listed drop the 10% and remove the middle man when it comes payments it would do better then ebay, because what we put in the buy,swap and sell is more when what ebay and in the same sections.

Will thats my opinon, happy to he other peoples ideas.

CHEERS

at least with a 3rd parity being involved it's a hell of a lot harder go get burnt by people doing the wrong thing & with biante being the 3rd party, you're pretty dam safe.

cheers. :)

All money paid is held by Biante in a special account. NOBODY receives any money till the model up for auction is delivered, received and confirmed through the auction site. If a model fails to be delivered, the situation is investigated and if need be a full refund is made to the buyer.

With US being the third party, how much more security do you want. If you deal with the seller direct, they aren't going to release the model till they have received the funds and the buyer isn't going to release funds till they have the goods.

We own and control the Auction Site 100%. There are no third parties running or managing it, I do the lot and confirming through the website at each stage of the transaction means we can monitor all stages of the dealings.

What you do see is the number of finished transactions going through the Auction Site every week and NO ONE has ever been refused their money at the end.

The choice is yours as to whether you use the site or not.
