Thoughts on an FCB/COMC seller list or thread?

[tommyfro21]

I know many people on the boards here buy or sell cards over on COMC. Has there been any discussion on creating a thread that has our FCB name with our COMC name next to it, kind of like the thread with player collectors? I would do it but I don't have the time to keep a list like that updated.

If that's too much work, has there been any thought of adding it to our profile like our eBay ID?

My thought is that a thread like this would create more deals for people since we could actually message each other if we find a card we like. I've seen people ask from time to time if a seller is on here so maybe this would help.

Personally, Im always willing to negotiate a price with an FCB member. I'm not one to always offer sales on COMC just due to time issues but I am usually open to offers so maybe this would help fellow members out.

Anyway, just a thought. Anyone else think this is worth pursuing?

By the way, my COMC ID is revredd if this helps kick off a list.

Good thinking, sure it can be done.

Anyone willing to start it? I would, but I'm afraid I wouldn't get it updated often enough.

Maybe we could have a COMC sales thread too. Basically a place where you could list promotions/port sales exclusively on FCB. It could be a sticky on top of the transactions page.

Glad to see a couple people like my original idea though.

I think it would be a great idea, too, to have a COMC seller ID link on our profile right below our eBay ID. I've been using COMC more and more lately and I think (read hope) that it would make it easier to connect with COMC sellers to possibly put some good deals together. Also it could help create some more personal/regular buyer/seller relationships.

Guys, let me talk with the others and see what is best and where the stickies should go.....here or trans etc.

Great idea

Ive talked to comc about fcb specials before.

I love the idea but the benefit of Ebay is that we get a percentage back when you click through FCB to buy. And if Chris has talked to COMC before, they probably couldnt agree on a deal. May be something worth trying again.

On that note there is nothing stopping you from advertising your seller ID in your signature.

Yes, but I guess we could simply start a thread where COMC seller could share their user name. Since COMC does not allow emails maybe people could talk through prices there before dumping money into their COMC account.

I see it as a thread like the Player collector thread.

That's was my first thought when I started this thread. Glad to see others like this.

In the end, I think it would help our collecting community more by connecting people with others who can help them with their card needs.

Also, I figure that word would spread that we have a COMC list and could possibly generate some more traffic to the site. I know I would always check the list first to see if a seller was a member before making an offer. Sellers may not be currently running a promotion, but if a board member needs a few things, maybe the buyer and seller could negotiate a fair percentage off.

Can't wait to see this get started!
