  • that is a true story! I couldnt believe it.

    Alias - only downside to that is that the Netherlands is like the UK at the moment, wii have in high demand and not easily accessable.

    no, the site says "free from advertising" and the rules say

    ADVERTISING

    This site is free from advertising. Posts on any board considered to be advertising goods, services and/or companies will be removed. We also do not allow advertising via PM

    Examples of this can include anything from a specific sales post or a link to your own website in which you attempt to sell something to someone offering their holiday home to forum members. Unfortunately we cannot allow any advertising of any description no matter how honourable the intention.

    This includes the Referrals Board (see below).

    If you think you have a genuinely good deal please contact a Board Guide for the board you’d like to post it on. If they agree with you they’ll contact the MSE Team and it will be considered. Any final decision will be that of the MSE Team. Please do not question the response with the Board Guide.

    go sell your stuff on ebay


    I might be getting the wrong end of this, but does this mean that you cant say where you get something from, like that they have Wiis in XXXXX because that is advertising. If that is the case then your last bit "go sell your stuff on ebay" is advertising that gismo sells Wiis on ebay which would be against the rules that you are stating.

    Please can you clarify.

    To be honest, selling at a profit can sort of be seen as money saving.

    I have 50 coming this week, and intend to make a profit on each one. I see it as money saving, as it will not only pay for christmas, but also finally pay off the last bit on both my credit cards.

    didnt ebayers get lumbered with TMX tickle me elmos last year?

    everyone knows you can buy/sell stuff in ebay...so not like i saying anything thats not open knowledge

    everyone who bothers to take the time to read the site rules knows there is a ban on advertising and selling stuff

    got the same start appearing in the threads last year when a glut of Wii's and PS3's hit the market and knackered the ebay sales...people desperately spamming that they had them to sell , hopefully the same is about to happen again

  • Could anyone post info on where the stock checkers mentioned in some of the posts could be found? I suspect this may have been address previously in the thread, but with over 150 pages of comments it like looking for needles in haystacks!

    Thanks

    Gismo,

    if that rule is followed to the t, then you, purehomes and any others shouldn't be saying that you have them for sale. However if I am allowed to say that a high street shop has them for sale then there is nothing wrong in me saying that you and purehomes have them for sale please contact them by means of imake@profit.com. I really do hope that I have read the rules wrong otherwise you cant have a grabit, shop till you drop or I wanna Wii thread.
