Hi,

The marketplace was discussed before on multiple occasions. I roughly have an idea of what I'd like to see but I'm curious what the community thinks.
Since it's very likely that this will be developed from scratch, there's no "limit" to what we can do.
Here's what I have in mind:

Sellers are able to create deals with other users. When creating a deal the user enters all the info about the deal (what's included) and after that, the user submits all the required information(account info, cape codes, etc) and optionally any files(configs, server setups, etc) involved in the deal, they enter a price, and some other things. Once the deal has been created, user2 gets informed and he can either agree/deny with the deal. Once he agrees he's forwarded to the payment processor. Once payment is complete, user2 gets access to the information/files entered in the deal. After completion of the deal, users are able to leave a "review/rating" on the user's profile. You cannot leave a review/rating unless you dealt with this person. This also adds a real reputation system that's based on deals unlike the current system. After all, we're a marketplace, right?

After the deal has been completed and one of the users happen to run into a issue related to the deal, they can always dispute it. Somewhat like PayPal's dispute system.

We don't like calling things "scam reports" as on a lot of occasions things get resolved within the scam report thread.

Along with a proper implentation of a IM system, all deals could be done on-site.


Keep in mind, this is just a concept. I'm not saying anything like or something similar will be added. I'm just curious what the community things.

The purpose of this thread is to brainstorm a good system with you.

High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.

No, they won't be able to download until payment is received just like in the resources section. READ THE ORIGINAL POST!

I did read it. What I was saying was if you want to sell an account through the system, fake info could be sent. If you can see the info before buying they can steal the account. If the payment must be received first, you don't know if what you're getting is real or not. If that's not it, then I don't get what you're saying but what I'm saying is this system just complicates everything.

In other words, a resource - we have those.

Did you even read the thread?
Yes, I have. However, what you've generally discribed was the resource system that has already been implemented with minor changes to log chat and supirior for individual deals vs. selling a single product. I'm not disagreeing with the suggestion, just pointing out that what you've discribed what a resource is, with improvements.

I do agree with this suggestion, as I have told both you and Mick, I would love to see improvements to the existing resource system through a resource crediting add-on which uers including gfdghfghfdfhgd Lockheed and a large sum of other user would like to see implemented.

Good luck with getting farther sopport for this concept.

This would stop most scams. Great idea +1

Maybe make it so you can view the names of the folders and files uploaded?

this CAN NOT be advertised as "scam proof" as you once described to me in shoutbox bosny

This isn't the same thing we're talking about.

This sounds a lot (actually, exactly) like the info in my "Marketplace Suggestion" thread I posted a week ago :whistle:
