Just sent my 3% for the layout boat. Sold it last Wednesday evening, and I reckon I had forgot about sending it during all the holiday mess going on. We good now Guvner.
Yeah, well, I always heard there were three kinds of suns in Kansas: sunshine, sunflowers, and sons-of-bitches.

Why not just send a message with amount due to any seller when the item is listed as sold. Give them a grace period then if not paid suspend membership.

Then folks will list as sold on another site. Plus we don’t have time to be sending all those messages.

are a majority of offenders relatively new members (people joining just so they can post on the classifieds) or is it long-time members? As someone mentioned in the last thread, many forums require a minimum post count or minimum wait period after joining before you can even see the classifieds, much less post in them......cause I guarantee you that guy that joins the site and his first/only post is a classifieds post isn't paying the 3% fee. In fact, they probably honestly don't know they're supposed to because I seriously doubt they're reading the rules first anyway.
I don't know if it's possible, based on the software running the site, but possibly:
1. minimum post count of 100 posts to even see that there is a classifieds, then 2. once a user meets 100 posts and can see the classifieds, they have to request access that has to be approved by a Moderator 3. make them click through something stating they've read/agreed to the rules, including the 3% donation

Plus we don’t have time to be sending all those messages. unfortunately I don't know that there's much way around that, unless you charge a fee just to list it to begin with. I know a lot of folks probably post items on Facebook Marketplace and craigslist, in addition to here and I'm sure many do sell on those sites before it sells here, but undoubtedly some will say that just to avoid paying the donation...

I would also suggest editing the original "Classifieds Rules" post and remove the part that says the donation upon sale "would be nice" and change it to "is required"

As far as I know, I'm current on paying my 3%.
A few times in the past I had multiple items sell at the same time and I'd send 1 payment for all, for the actual selling price, not the initial asking price.
If I'm not, or there are any questions, you can let me know via PM or in an open forum...I'll make it right.
I'd also be on board for a paid membership...I like this place and want to see it succeed

usually pay money on and off through the year for things I sell. If I get behind send Out back over to slap me in the head and tell me to tighten up. You have a step stool he can borrow, or does he need to bring his own? 😆

You could charge $5 per year on the first ad a person runs that has to be paid before posting. Then they must pay their 3% or $100 on subsequent submissions or posting privileges are suspended for a length of time and repeat offenders get the boot. That $5 fee would bring in revenue from everyone using the classifieds and get people used to paying through the system that's been established.
Skinny, I'm sending you a PM about something else that could help regarding the payment gateway.
