I don't have it quite where I want it yet but I just can't take it any longer. :shock:
As you know Hal has had a ruff time dealing with the Hurricane stuff that he's been putting on the boards. One of the big problems is he has over sold stuff as much as 40 times! That's 40 PayPal refunds he has to go through one by one. :roll: That got him to thinking that there has to be a better way. Well between Hal, Tapper and myself we have come up with a solution not only for Hals problems but also for many other issues we had with the classifieds.
If you have ever used ebay you will have no problem using this site. It will pretty much do everything we need to do and then some. it's going to take a little getting use to but I think you're going to like it. It may be your new hangout. ;)
We will be adding parts all night so look for some killer deals. This will be a great place for small vendors too.

Lamont - very cool site. I started to sign up for an account but stopped when I saw the registration page was not a secured page. Is that something you guys are working on? I'm probably just overly paranoid :roll:

There is no credit card or bank information being loaded to the site. All that would be done through PayPal or your credit card company. It's pretty much like signing up for a account here.

Very cool. Leading edge type of stuff here. Just motorcycles. That could catch on in a hurry.

I could see why people would want to be you. ;)
I like the layout fine, it seems like it should work out pretty well. It would be nice though if you can find a way to get people to put parts under parts headings and just motorcycles under motorcycle headings. It makes it frustrating to go look for a bike and find parts for sale!
I know, you can't help that, but EBay has a cure--- charge a lot more for the vehicle and less for the parts, then no one will post parts in vehicle headings!
Great job Lamont, especially for free, I just wish people would post correctly.

Yea, I wish I could at least move it where it goes. :roll: I think it's going to be a learning curve for all of us. So far I'm pretty happy with the way things are going.
I know you have stuff to put on there. ;)

My intentions is to phase out the old classifieds. Those are too much work on my end.

Already sold something there at the New Auction Site...Ok just a pair of gloves but it's a start. Posted a Motorcycle Cover and in 5 minutes had an email from a guy in the UK! That's action and that's QUICK!
Not many auction sites do this well in 24 hours, not in 24 days! Truth is, most auction sites NEVER do this well!
As for security, there isn't any information there to steal! That's the best protection you can get!
Thanks again Lamont!
