So, I acquired a new domain recently and thought I would put it to good use by creating a website for it. This has taken me awhile because about a week before Thanksgiving got here my back was giving me a fit. So, I would sit at the computer for awhile and then when I couldn’t sit here any longer I would have to stop and then go lie down for a bit. And anyone who has a bad back knows exactly what I’m talking about. Because when your back goes out, you’re not any good to do anything except go see the chiropractor or lie flat on your back until the pain goes away. And since I don’t take any drugs of any kind (not even aspirin or tylenol) I have to stop whatever I am doing to take care of the problem, and for me, that means laying down until my back feels better.
Anyway, enough about my back problems, lol. The domain is called “Slightly Used Items” and I created a fresh new site using that domain name. But before I sat down and created the site I had to decide what to use so members could post the items they wanted to sell and I thought it should be something easy to understand and something they could do easily. So, instead of adding some sort of script that would control the operation I decided just creating a forum would be much easier.
Now, the forum will be available for anyone to view, but in order to post anything for sale or to reply to the seller, you will first need to purchase a subscription. And, I have decided on 2 subscription levels; a 6 month and 1 year. And I decided that adding a 6 month would come in handy for those who wanted to “try it out” before making a commitment for a longer period.
Okay, so right about now you’re thinking well why wouldn’t people find selling there used items in a yard sale of renting space at a flea market be easier? Well, yeah. I guess that would be easier if you have the time, if you have the strength to move stuff from one place to the other or if you have the space to be able to do that like a big front yard. And another thing to consider is that maybe someone doesn’t have a lot of stuff to sell. Maybe 1 or 2 items is all they want to get rid of and they want to be able to sell those things without having to go through all the trouble.
