To sell on here you need a paypal business account but switching to a business account limits using that account for online shopping, sending money to friends and family, etc.That aside, there are plenty of people who have issues with Paypal in general so there are a slew of topics asking for alternatives both from buyers and sellers. There are also bunch of topics where people request the option to trade through here.

What about introducing account trade credit? Like allow people to sell games on marketplace to build up trade credit and they can then use that trade credit to buy other games on the marketplace.

This would:
- be a relatively simple way to introduce trading
- remove the need for a personal paypal account to buy
- remove the need for a business paypal account to sell
- avoid the transfer fees, tax issues, and other mishegoss for people who want to do both
- actively promotes people listing/ selling games to buy other games

Of course, I'm not suggesting it be a closed system. People having an option to put money in and take money out is essential to any marketplace. If you're ride or die with Paypal exclusive, this still gives people a way to participate without using Paypal or you linking up with another platform like Stripe. Besides, floating trade credit on an account and trading in games toward other games is a staple of the gaming community.

I often come across game cartridges listings with titles including the string "new battery". These listings are categorized as new when they logically can't be. Would it be possible to have listings including the string "new" be categorized as new, unless they contain the string "new battery"?

Thanks

Looking into the indigo OEM GameCube controller sales, there are two sales listed under "New" that are actually used controllers with new joysticks. The sales cannot be reported the usual way as the listings are too old.

There are also, under CIB:

a sale dated 2021-07-06 that should be listed as loose;

a sale dated 2021-07-12 that is actually an indigo & clear controller;

a sale dated 2021-07-28 that should be listed as loose;

a sale dated 2021-07-31 that should be listed as loose;

a sale dated 2021-08-19 that should be listed as loose;

a sale dated 2021-08-31 that should be listed as loose;

a sale dated 2021-10-23 that should be listed as loose;

a sale dated 2022-01-03 that is about a third-party controller.

Again, the listings are too old to be easily reported and reviewed. Thank you.

Pokemon TCG is already an extremely expansive universe, but one aspect of it that often goes forgotten in collections are its flip coins. There are many unique designs as well as changes to their actual size/material over the years that makes them popular to collect, and they should be able to be added to collections as such! They are also gradeable now as far as I know, so that adds to their collectability. They should definitely be considered as something to be added to the price charting database.

When reviewing a sale, the picture from the eBay sale and the image from this website for the product under which the sale is listed could both be displayed side by side. We would often see at a glance when the sale needs to be "modified" as the pictures wouldn't match.

Getting notified when a wishlist item is listed at 'under market price' when it's 99% of market price is basically junk mail. This goes double for notifications about copies of the game which are too far above or below what I'm currently looking for. ( For example: If someone is collecting loose NES cartridges, even a good price on a graded copy might be 50-100+x what they're looking to spend. )

With every item on my wishlist, there are conditions/ levels of completeness I'm looking for and a price point I have in mind that I'm looking to spend for them. If notifications could be tailored to that, it would be infinitely more useful. There is a point where any notification I can get to fast enough would result in a sale.

If those price points were visible to potential sellers they would know at what price they'd need to list the item for it to sell quickly. ( Heck, I know I'd be interesting to see how those numbers chart compared to what the game is currently selling for on ebay. ) It could even open the door to sellers being able to propose bulk deals to buyers. There are so many games that are valued less than the cost of shipping but if they have 10 or 20+ titles that are on someone's wish list which they would happily sell for equal or less than that buyer says they're willing to pay, there's absolutely deals to be made.

When i get ebay alerts from items in my wishlist being below the market place threshold, I receive a LOT of junk messages becausce i cannot specify the type of listing (NEW vs CIB vs LOOSE).    Please allow us to customize our ebay alterts in this way.  

As title reads. A particular benefit for Canada as our government charges far too many fees along with courier fees to add on. This would allow me to see items within Canada without having to click on individual sales.
