Default Things you REALLY need to know about QUEERBAY!

* You will need to familiarize yourself with the Terms of Usage for Queerbay and remember that ButchFemmePlanet is NOT responsible for any item bought or sold on Queerbay. The sale is between users.

* Queerbay is a very persnickety piece of software and not nearly, NEARLY as fancy as eBay. If you are used to using eBay, you might be a little frustrated at first but we hope you will come to appreciate the simplistic nature of Queerbay


* VERY IMPORTANT - Since this is a buying and selling platform, there will be a level of personal information that is shared with one another. This is done AT YOUR OWN RISK.
*** At this time, you must input an address when first using Queerbay. When a BUYER wins an auction or sale, the BUYER'S ADDRESS is automatically sent in a private message to the SELLER.***
If you DO NOT want your address sent automatically, then feel free to put in an address like "777 Noneofyourbizeness Street". You will still end up giving the Seller your address to receive goods, but we understand that folks might prefer to send their address in their own private message.

* When listing something for sale on Queerbay, you may ONLY list WHOLE DOLLAR INCREMENTS.
i.e. You have a whizzit and want to list it for 2.50, you will get an error message from the system until you list it for either $2 or $3.

* Please note: Sale listings CANNOT use a colored font. We're sorry for the inconvenience but there is a bug in the software and it will erase half of your listing if you try to use a colored font.

* When list the "bid increments", these MUST be in WHOLE DOLLARS as well.
i.e. You list a whizzit for $60 and are about to list the bid increments. Here, you will have the option of increasing the amount that bidders must up their bid by $1, $2, or however much you like.
i.e. Wil's whizzit is for sale for $60. June wants to bid on it. Wil has set the bid increment of his whizzit by $4. June must bid at LEAST $64 on Wil's whizzit.

* VERY IMPORTANT FOR BIDDERS: Queerbay does NOT offer proxy bidding. What you bid is what you will pay.
i.e. Suzi has a whizzit for sale for $8. QueenofQueens wants to bid on the whizzit and is willing to pay up to $20 for it. On many sites like eBay, you can bid $20 and the system will keep bidding for you by proxy up to $20. Our Queerbay software DOES NOT do that. If QueenofQueens bids $20, the price of the bid is accepted at $20.

* The shipping option on the seller panel isnt all that great. You have the ability to use it if you want to charge a flat shipping fee to your buyers, these also MUST be in WHOLE DOLLAR amounts. It might be better for you as a seller (and for your buyers) if you list your shipping fees in your auction or sale description (and this will also give you the option to charge any increment you need on shipping amounts).

* As a seller, you have many options to sell. You can set up an auction, and allow people bid on your item OR you can set up an auction with a "Buy it Now" option. The "Buy it Now" option is like a straight sale, the person simply pays the price you ask for and it is automatically sold! You also have the option of using BOTH the "Auction" AND the "Buy it Now". This will let people bid on an item OR let someone buy it outright if they are willing to pay your asking price.

* Sales Posts can NOT be edited once posted so post carefully!


Im sure that more will be added here at a later time, but thats all for now.

would it be a good guess that we're getting closer to this being activated?

also, does the software automatically create the thumbnail or do we need to have a specifically sized image to put up as the thumb?

I'm understanding what you wrote Medusa. Now I can't wait to look at sale items......in fact, I'm envious and now want June's whizzit.

What I really need to know is, what is a whizzit? Should I have one? Do I need one to be in the "in" crowd? Are there butch whizzits and femme whizzits? In what colors do said whizzits come? Damn it, Queerbay needs to open so I can have a whizzit too!!

Also, see the item in your post in red below:

"As a seller, you have many options to sell. You can set up an auction, and allow people bid on your item OR you can set up an auction with a "Buy it Now" option. The "Buy it Now" option is like a straight sale, the person simply pays the price you ask for and it is automatically sold! You also have the option of using BOTH the "Auction" AND the "Buy it Now". This will let people bid on an item OR let someone buy it outright if they are willing to pay your asking price."

I really want to know how we have a "straight" sale on "queer"bay!
