Selling Luxury Chess Sets on ebay

Hello friends,

I'm  starting to sell luxury chess sets on ebay. I've been a chess enthusiast for decades  and thought this would be a lot of fun to do. I have always preferred high end sets and wanted to share what I'm passionate about with folks who are like me. The links to the ebay listings are:

Would greatly appreciate any feedback you may have. Right now the quantities of chess sets are very limited, however based on your feeback, I will get more sets made.

The over stuffed Teddy Bear might have a point. Others however, have posted sets for sale. I guess its up to the mods & not Teddy Bears.

It doesn't really bothers me that people offer sales. I actually like it.

I have found some nice designs and deals becouse this forums. I think it is a great service.

Also the title of this post was very clear about the content, if people is not interested on learning about ebay sales offers I would sugets to avoid doing the click on messages with descriptions about sales on ebay.

Personally, I don't have an issue with people posting links to their ads on other sites. I think of it as a FYI "heads up" alert. Even better if they offer a discount for Chess.com members!

I would, however, take exception with posting full-blown ads in the forums. If Chess.com wants to allow ads, then they should set up a separate forum to do so.

I too do not have a problem with it but I do know if the forum turned into one big selling forum it would not last too long. First you have to ask yourself did it look like to the moderators I joined the forum just to get free advertising for my sets?  If your answer is yes I think this thread will not last too long. 

I myself haven't joined as a paying member as of yet but I am seriously thinking about it, if only for the reason it takes money to pay for it. Was hoping these chaps who own the place would have a senior discount and I mean a real senior discount, 65 or over. 

I personally don't care for chess books, I see that usually there is messages of people asking for books, or anouncing selling their books... I just don't click on those messages.

I also see there is a whole forum about jokes... I don't click on that neigther.... and so on and go on....

When I am not interested I just don't click. One thing I don't do is click and then comment that I am not interested.

I also have no problem with people posting Chess items for sale. Some people take it upon themselves to admonish others for posting items for sale. These blockheads don't realise that this Forum has Mods that will take care of it if there is a problem.!
