New Upgrade Idea - PObay, a Schiller's dream
This one is pretty simple in concept and would really clean up the marketplace big time, plus allow the Cookies/Dalsue's of the world to still operate fairly.
Lets say I have 10 lock I wanna sell. I set a baseline price, length of time for auction and bid increment (50 pts, 100 pts, etc.).
Bidder escrows the points as they go along (make it clear that once they escrow they can't withdraw IF they are the top bidder - if you're out bid your points should be refunded back to the account).
Here's the catch - too many times in the marketplace does the advertiser of the item either not trade it (thereby creating these dumb issues) or lost it at the tables. For this to work, somehow there has to be an account to trade it too (this isnt mandatory but would make it run smoother).
Benefits:
- The marketplace gets cleaned of most of the shit clogging it up
- Free market still reigns supreme (these guys can run concurrent auctions every hour if they want)
- Channel 1 is for actual poker and Patriots talk.
