AGN auctions?

[punkonjunk1024]

Uh... Random idea. I don't know if cash is still a problem, but I had an idea -
A hosted auction forum. set something up, and say maybe 10% of the cash goes to the owner (shadowblazer?)
...I noticed someone trying to pawn off a GBA with an after burner in there sig, and this idea came to me... Maybe this could actually work if someone knew how to get this rolling...
Or I'm too uninformed to contribute in anyway, and this is just incoherent noob idiocy:P

Pretty much. If I want to buy something, I'll go to ebay or ask on IRC. Mind you, I have nothing against donations to AGN (currently hosted by WarLord, btw), but a tithe on the one or two auctions that might actually be carried to fruition seems slightly silly.

Uh... It would depend on how many people have things to sell, and how many people would by said garbage.
it might work if our comunity here had say... maybe another digit or so :shrug:

SA has managed an auction on a forum fairly well. They have disclaimers saying that they are not liable for any bad transactions. I don't think they've had too much of a problem there.

I don't think that this would be good on this forums though. We're too small and it wouldn't be very active. If you want to sell something just start a topic.
