    Barter section?

    Maybe we could get a sub section strictly for trading gear? No sales, just barters. Could even trade goods for services, or trades looking for non paintball items? Maybe if there's enough interest in such a category we could try it out?

        Edit: The more I think about this the more I like the idea. We obviously already have the WTB (which you can use to trade a specific thing for a specific thing), but I am really keen on the idea of "Hey I have this item - (ITEM), what do you have to trade?" and just seeing what kind of weird shit we can get into. I share my excitement now, but I'm sure i'll end up trading an Azodin for a pack of doilies or something.

              I love you guys, the section is labelled Buy, Sell, Trade. There is only 1 subforum that doesn't go back at least 4 days on page 1 with some going back almost a month on page 1, so I ask.
              Why not put something up for trade in the existing subforum like we always have?
              If you don't want to post a value of what you are looking to trade away then how do we stop a trade section from becoming a "silent auction" section?
              Do you think there are enough trades generating traffic to warrant a dedicated section.

              I'll admit that I'm of the mind that subforum should be used to receive high traffic areas and that we have a lot of subforums we don't need anymore with our current traffic but I am open to being wrong about both of those things.

                I agree with Nish. Our BST sections work, I've traded two of my last three transactions.

                Well that's just it, I feel like even if you are trading only you should still put a dollar amount of what it's worth, then it's compliant with the rules. I hear you though. It was just a thought.

              Why not.
              Any of you got a green card for trade?

                Depends. What do you need laundered? Money? Sins? Your guilty conscience?

                Nish is right.

                Flood the BST with trades and we'll consider a separate forum for barter

                  But then I'll be tempted to acquire more things I don't need...

                      Never. This is my first time.

                        I'm actually in the middle of organizing it all. Bought some solid divider parts trays so I'm moving my hardware and o-rings over to those and putting things like regs and fittings in the adjustable ones.
