To buy and sell mods

[Archfear]

---

Hello MODs,

I'm just gonna be straight to my point. I just have a little concern regarding buy and sell section.
I believe there are some sellers here in Buy and Sell Section that post a very high selling price for their items to the point that it becomes unreasonable and somewhat scum-like.

On top of that, they are giving false information and hype to the public about their items. On exception though, I understand that there are also sellers who didn't know that the current brand new prices of their items in the market have already depreciated and some had just a hard time letting go of their items at a lower price especially if they had bought it at a high price. (It's either you base your price a little lower than the lowest brand new price in the market since it is already 2nd hand or just keep it for personal use if you really can't let it go) This way, Buy and Sell Section would become a fairer place to do transactions.

But there are some sellers who really intentionally give false hype, information, and current brand new price in the market and try to give assuring words.. (e.g. Just check it yesterday sa SM 17K pani siya / Dual core ni sya boss, I just read the review / Uu bro, latest gen ni sya) What makes it worst is that there are people who buy them. And this is the real issue of my concern.

I have been trying to reply to those post with concrete facts by posting web links if possible and tried to give correct information to the public as to hardware information and current market price if there is any.. And sad to say, had already been accused of thread crapping... I'm just trying to defend our fellow istoryan's hard earned money and really felt sorry to those who fell to scumbags.. I know I am not the proper authority to do this but there are people who are being taken advantage of even as you are reading this post now. I know our problem with scums here in istorya is very real and some of us are taking the initiative to post their pictures to make aware the public if we are lucky to have it.

To MODs, I humbly implore your authority to watch over us both buyers and sellers to review each and every post. I suggest you put one or several MODs in a section wherein he or she is very knowledgeable about its hardware, trend, and current pricing. He should have the authority to suggest to the seller of its pricing if the price is deemed unreasonably high and give correct facts if the given information is faulty. I hope our MODs have the power to more than just mere moderating who bumps the most or who craps threads.

I certainly don't want our beloved Istorya.net become a "Buy at your Own Risk" website. Because for me, this is more than just a place for Buy and Sell... more than just a place for interacting with fellow Cebuanos with common interests... for me, Istorya.net is also a way of life.

Just like what my bro said, daghan tikasan ngari... We just have to be careful. Bought my car from this site, at least maayo to nga seller. I agree with you bro, it's like buying at your own risk these days.

agree ko nimo on some points bro.

but the thing is some of istorya.net users are plain folks who just happens to sell their stuff for some reason and base their prices on when they bought their unit brand new.

as buyers pud, we have to know about the things that we are buying para pud dili ta maalkansi. with regards to pricing, well, it's the sellers prerogative on how much iya i-price sa iyang unit but the final decision kay ang buyer man. if dili ka ka-uyon sa price then negotiate. if dili jud madala then back away. after a few days nga dili mahalin ang item i think the seller would get the idea already.

luoy pud au ang mods mao ra han-ukan sa tanan problema. naa sad bya na sila tagsa2x trabaho. anyway, para safe buying and selling sa istorya, seller and buyers should be responsible enough.

sellers, please research about the price of the item you are selling and be truthful about your item.
buyers, be vigilant enough para dili ka ma-ilad.

no matter where you are in the world scammers are all around. iStorya.net is not an exception. No offence admin ha. just saying.

sakto ka bro.... I can understand sa ubang ridiculously high price.... but ang naka pait kay ang uban mo give pa jud ug false information and mo reassure pa jud ug mo confirm sa ilang false info...

Wew nana pud ning way of thinking ay. Boss sorry to tell you walay tao ganahan magpascam. Although I agree with buyers' responsibility and checking things before buying, what you just said is just so abhorrent.
There are just too many variables to assume such callous accusations. Your accusation works along the lines of a a scumbag telling a girl who got raped "Magparape pud diay ka? Why dont you wear decent clothes para di ka marape". As much as TS has no right to dictate sellers' prices, you have NO RIGHT to assume such ludicrous assumptions.

Samoka na aning mga ingon ani oy, BUY & SELL area man unta ni diri. Dili mani lugar para reklamuhan. Kung na scam ba mo, misleading ang post, mahal ang presyo, or naa moy gipangita nga "bad seller", posts like these should be posted where it should be, and that is the SUPPORT CENTER.

Reklamo mo ug sakto ngadto. Kay para tubagon sa mga mods og admin inyung mga queries.
Imbis nangari ta para mangita ug items. Sge na hinuon og ka bring up inyuhang posts nga puro reklamo. Ses
