Hope I'm posting this question in the right place.

I am wanting to start a "virtual yard sale". Just like eBay, but it would be free for me be/c I'm making it. LOL! Do you all just come here and say what you have and see who replies and wants it? After I do get this all set up, am I allowed to post the link in my siggy? Also, wanted to know if anyone else wanted to do this w/ me and we could link together. It would be an awesome way to draw more people in. And, the best part is that there would be no fees and we would make up the rules, limits, etc. It could be ran as an auction type thing (thinking that would bring in more $$$) or as a yard sale type thing and just list a price and maybe work w/ people who really want a certain thing. I've already got one person to link w/ me, but she's not selling anything. She has a coupon page and trades coupons and trades for free things. Well, we all know that coupon clippers and people who want free things are also those same people looking for great deals. What better a person to link with. KWIM?

Anyway, I do know that I need to get a P.O. box. I don't want just any person out there having my home addy. I do think safety when it comes to this HUGE Internet.

Any advice, suggestions, comments (pro or con)? TIA :)

Misty, why not try the auction here first? Its fast and free you have nothing to set up, and I believe only members here get to be members there, kwim?

The auction is a separate registration and login... I don't think you need to belong here too. I could be wrong, though. THat happens once in awhile. ;)

and if you don't want to auction your items, you can list them for sale or trade in the Peddler's Courtyard forum.
