floatfox Posted August 20, 2014 Share Rouxtjie, I can easily reach a 1000 or maybe even 14000 posts if I also use the hub as a chat site.. Corrado and Steven Knoetze (sk27) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandro Posted August 20, 2014 Share 1000 posts... Whatever. I've been on the hub for nearly 10 years and bought and sold my fair share. What matters is this is my name and my photo which counts way more than 100 000 posts from a nickname and a cartoon avi.

footdoc Posted August 21, 2014 Share I always say that the product is sold when the cash is in the bank. Never turn down any buyers. ChUkKy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Francois Pienaar Posted August 21, 2014 Share Until you have cash in bank OR have at least made contact and arranged a drop off point, keep taking offers. floatfox and ChUkKy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blondeonabike Posted August 21, 2014 Share How much stront must one speak to get to 1000 posts... liewe genadeEasy, you don't have to say anything, just post lots of pics on the ladies and bicycles thread.

FrankG Posted August 21, 2014 Share What matters is this is my name and my photo which counts way more than 100 000 posts from a nickname and a cartoon avi. 100% agree. People can see my face and immediately there is a sense of trust. JohanC, eddy, Vangar and 7 others 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greybeard Posted August 21, 2014 Share I have had 2 cases of buyers making meeting arrangements and then not pitching. Even one where the person in question started with "I will take them". ChUkKy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichieT Posted August 21, 2014 Share Should have a "Rate the Buyer" option in the classifieds so sellers know who to trust a bit less than othersThere is a rate the buyer system in place, but most people are not using it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichieT Posted August 21, 2014 Share Until you have cash in bank OR have at least made contact and arranged a drop off point, keep taking offers.Just say provisionly sold until the cash is in hand or in the bank.. easy. Take the other party's number and call them back if the first buyer defaults Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What matters is this is my name and my photo which counts way more than 100 000 posts from a nickname and a cartoon avi.Well start then @floatfox, its the only way I can judge your character....25 posts since 2012 doesnt really inspire me to want assist or help you in any way...its a two way street remember, I am not interested in people that don't realize this. @Sandro...good for you, however, its exactly people like you and @floatfox, I am not interested in dealing with. Now don't get me wrong, its not about trust or me thinking you are scamsters, but if you have 470 posts in 10 years you really dont contribute much ito thehub community(helping people..in many forms here on thehub). I would rather sell something for 500 bucks to someone that is a regular contributor(read helping people) than to someone for 800 rand that is only here to see what bargains he can snap up or call dibs on...aka lurkers Edited August 21, 2014 by rouxtjie DIPSLICK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChUkKy Posted August 21, 2014 Share I have had 2 cases of buyers making meeting arrangements and then not pitching.

Jester6 Posted August 21, 2014 Share I'm new here, I've only been a member for a month or so, I have no major or in depth cycling knowledge and in most if not all instances currently have nothing worthwhile to contribute. Anything I say or suggest could be completely off the mark so I'd rather let those who have the knowledge or experience contribute. So perhaps that makes me a "lurker", but I'd rather not say anything until I know what I'm talking about...If a topic comes up that I feel I can weigh in on I will (like this one). I'm glad a predefined posting requirement is not the prevailing attitude around here, otherwise newbies like me would be screwed.

I personally wish admin would make a requirement, but I understand his position it however does nothing for stimulating growth of what I think everybody wants thehub to be....read the gumtree vs community post.
