Question - Can I post Amazon.Com Links on Barter Town?

Post by Benjamin385 »

I am Currently Selling allot of Books (Mostly Hero System) on Amazon.com Would it be OK if I posted my Amazon.com Store on Bartertown?

I am a Seller that has 97% Positive Feedback from all of his clients.



Would this be possible?

Edit: Thought I would include some Additional Information.

I try and be very competitive on My Prices with other vendors.

The Reason I Like going through amazon.com is because Both sides get what they paid for

Example 1 - I pay for a book and it does not come I can get my funds back.

Example 2 - A book that I paid for arrives and is in condition not described. I can work with the seller to get a replacement or a refund.

What i am trying to say is it adds a extra layer of protection for both the buyer and the seller.

Maybe.

I'm not a huge Amazon user, so pardon my ignorance.
You said, "Would it be OK if I posted my Amazon.com Store on Bartertown?"

If you're running a commercial endeavor, then it is absolutely NOT acceptable to post the link(s), unless you are an advertiser.
On the other hand, if you're just selling them as "Joe Average," then I would have no problem with treating them like auctions, with all the accompanying requirements.

I think what this situation needs is some imagination.

I am a College Student not a Store. Amazon Allows you to use their site as long as you have a credit or Debit card.

So I am looking for a way to get by day to day and Week by Week.

So Yes I am Joe Average.

I would tend to agree. As described, these are closest to "Auctions", rather than regular sales.

Yeah. That's cool, then.

I just needed to clarify, since you said, "Would it be OK if I posted my Amazon.com Store on Bartertown?"
(emphasis mine)

I needed to have you clarify what "store" meant.

You're good to go, then.
