Archives for completed sales?

[davidk]

Hey RWG staff.

I notice the common practice once an item in the trade section is sold, the thread is deleted.

I would like to suggest that perhaps a completed sale archive be created for reference purposes.

I thought I purchased a classic TW best sub 7 months ago, but now research is making me wonder if this is the case. I can't go back and look at the details of the listing because it has been deleted. It would also make a searchable record of who sold what which i believe would be useful to all members.

Thanks

David

This has actually been suggested to me by somebody else just yesterday and at first I thought it was a great idea. BUT (not that I think that will ever happen) what if something happened to RWG and the RWG database fell into the hands of some lawyers? Would it still be a good idea to have a seachable archive over sold items here, that could possibly be crossreferenced...

I'm concidering for and against this, but I think that the members why buy items from other members here can either received any pictures or other info i the sales post from the seller after we have deleted the post.

yes that is a good point. I personally wouldn't care, but I could see how others might.

yet if that happened, I think the pms would suffice.
