Wow, the bussekinexchange really took off!

Yep, seems people like the ability to sell knives w/o having to pay fees to do it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

shoot, I'll join too!

368 now, pending approval.

Pending approval here too. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Pending.

Woohoo. Posted. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Thanks Dan!

It shouldn't take long for me to approve you. I do this to keep the spammers out. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

To prevent any confusion, the Busse families have no affiliation whatsoever with that site. I created it after Dan said we couldn't sell here. The idea was to be able to trade among ourselves, rather than having to use eBay or BF and pay fees. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> BF seems to go down a lot. If you don't pay fees to sell, you have more money for knives! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Approved and in...

Now we have 376. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> You might want to join us if you haven't already...you might miss a good deal! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> I've seen several knives sell for really good prices that have only been offered there.

I joined about a week ago. I am still trying to figure out how it works. I'm not sure I got conformation, but I am getting a bunch of emails about Busse knives for sale. I can't seem to get to anywhere that has pictures of the knives though?

Desperately seeking pictures,

Mick

So, joined, wanted to for a while.. [censored] now I have to try and get my mitts on a real Busse <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

It doesn't show pics in the posts. Some people post a link to the pics, or you can email them and ask them to send you pics if they have them.

Do not thank me. It was Andy and fellow Dogs that came up with this since I do not permit selling on the ScrapYard Forum. There is also no sponsorship from any Bussekin company... so it is Dog on Dog so to speak <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Dan

Congrats on the S5 and welcome to the Yard! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Ok…I had something I wanted to run by you guys. When I created the Busse Kin Exchange on Yahoo, I did so because it was the only option I knew of that I could create a forum type place to sell things. However, I’ve heard from a lot of people more familiar with forums than Yahoo groups who said they didn’t like the format, that it was hard to find things, and figure out how to post pics, etc. At the time, it was the only option and the best I could do.

However, recently I found that Geocities was shutting down, and found I needed to find a new server. I found one, and registered a custom domain. One of the things included with this server is forum software. It is more like a “standard forum” than Yahoo is, and I wondered what you guys think of moving the Busse Kin Exchange to the new forum I created rather than the Yahoo group? Since a lot of people didn’t like the Yahoo group layout, I thought you guys might prefer this. Or, I thought maybe you wouldn’t want to hassle with setting up a new account? I thought I’d ask your thoughts.

One of the good things is, with my account I have unlimited traffic and file space, so I made it so you can have unlimited PMs (no more full PM boxes to empty). You can also attach pics to your post if you don’t have a photobucket account, or insert pics right into the posts like you do here. I’m still learning the forum software, but I put up a couple forums for selling and chatting. If you want, you guys can check it out and let me know what you think. Here’s the link:

So…what do you guys think about the Busse Kin Exchange?

It's a great idea and glad to be a member.

Which do you like better? New forum or Yahoo group?

The yahoo group is kind of a pain to move around. Go for it Andy <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />.

The new site should make it easier to buy and sell knives. Looks good Andy! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

that new site is awesome!
maybe it can be stickied for the future? maybe like an "unofficial" bussekin exchange area.

Andy, I love the new forum a lot more than the yahoo deal. I think that it will be a major hit for the knife guys!

Old things get lost and forgotten very easily in the yahoo groups the forum would make that easier. I am willing to give it a try.

In fact I am already registered <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

So far everyone likes the new one. You can go ahead and join and post there if you want. I already made it. You can repost any ads you listed elsewhere if you like.

Yeah, that's what I thought.

Will we be able to have feedback? Like on BF

Not that I've seen yet.

on my way,thanks andy.

I just joined. the yahoo group is bit difficult to use so I say, move it. I have sold several knives and boughten several on the group and appreciate the site.thanks

I just checked out the new site and I like it a lot. I just registered there too...thanks Andy.

Andy could set up a thread section where we can just post feedback on individuals ourselves after the transaction has been completed.

not sure if any of you have been to snipercentral.com but they have that system and its worked pretty well.

its not an officially recorded system but its one way to see how things have gone with past transactions.

Yeah, that's a pretty good alternative...

I definitly like the new site better. It's a lot more user friendly and easier to navigate.

the new site is much more user friendly, go for it AW

You guys can start posting there if you want. So far, 96% like the new page better. Only 10 have joined so far. More people voted than joined. So, if you voted you like it better, but haven't joined, go ahead and join and feel free to use it, and spread the word to others as a place to sell items for free.

Get over and join. I was the first poster there--same name!

Hi Andy.
New site looks great!
But.....

There are many website based forums already.
I joined the mailing list because of its
"back room" feel. Guys would post something for sale
and we would hope to see some great deals via those emails.
It happened too....
Anyway,although the new site is much easier to navigate and operate,
I still like the "old school" mailing list version as well.

I will join the new site,(right now actually)
but hope the old mailing list doesnt go by the wayside.

Thanks for all your hard work.

Its a lot better then deleting all those messages every time I open my mail.

I haven't tested it yet, but I saw there's an option at the bottom left to subscribe to a forum. I believe it will email you when something is posted so you get the same effect. You can subscribe to a whole forum, or a single post. The option is at the bottom left after you click on a forum.

I like it so much I posted a big For Sale thread there to help cover some medical bills. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />

I was going to suggest something like a freewebs forum or simmilar board instead of the Yahoo group. It's a much better layout that most folks will recognize.
I joined.
Thanks bunches for changing it. Yahoo can be a pain in the @$$. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I am a new member at the new site. I think it is better from what I saw.

Hmmm, the site is down. NM, back up now.
