What is the definiton of thread crapping?

[MX2]

Thoughts?

 

[blackdogdeek]

criticism of price.

 

[Yossarian]

criticism of product too. basically unless you're interested in buying the item, stfu.

 

[Jpark]

it always gets me when people say, "good luck finding one at that price" or " I can buy that for less at .......", when it involves rebates.

 

[NightTrain]

lowballs are crapping too

 

[Megatomic]

Link? We can disect it here.

Fromt the forum rules:
Except as noted, thread crapping will not be tolerated. If you are not interested in buying or selling, or you have nothing positive to say, STAY OUT OF THE THREAD! If you think the asking price is too high, or you want to make a lowball offer, contact the seller via email or PM.

* Some reasons why "thread crapping" may be ok:


If you are positive the person is a troll. If you're not sure but 'think' they are, PM us, or contact the Trollhunters.

Making a newbie aware of the rules (but do so politely).

anything other than ygpm, bump, to the top, or a variation thereof

That's good advice just as a general rule.

I figured thread crapping is considered any comment which does nothing but add negativity to the thread.


No link, just looking for thoughts from the people I have respect for here

No. I see at the top it plainly states "best offer." Hell, the best offer could be $10 for all we know.

yeah, but "best offer" isn't allowed (right?) or maybe it is, i dunno. it is better not to do best offer in FS/T. just post a price and let the pm's or lack thereof dictate dropping the price later on

Yes, best offer is not allowed.

Best offer isnt allowed? I thoguht it was if the price was also posted. Hmmm, learn something everyday I guess

Someone offers them their posted price then someone offers more than the posted price. The seller then wants to sell at the higher price. This isn't Ebay nor was it intended to be anything like Ebay.

I know that. but I have always understood "best offer" to mean, best offer under posted price if posted price cannot be met.


Anyway, I wasnt referring to that thread
