The Best of B&S - Someone should buy this!

[razl]

@Nafets47 don't worry, it's going to be another week or two but I plan on getting cranked back up - stay tuned!

 

[earthdragon]

So, it was working, but is no longer working?

I'll have to take a look tomorrow. It's 9:30 here, and I've been doing this pretty much all day. Will see what is going on tomorrow. If anything changes on your end, please do tell me.

Cheers,

Fok.

Working now

That's great news, Razl!

 

[Ich_Dien]

Hope you can get back on track, Razl!

 

[goalaso]

Razl, I hope you were able to come up with a way to continue this wonderful thread...

 

[othertravel]

We want Razl! We want Razl! We want Razl!

 

[seferphier]

I bought a couple of things due to Razl's post! He gets deals going!

 

[goalaso]

Couldn't agree more. I've even been dragging my feet on posting a few things b/c I had my fingers crossed the thread would revive. Either way, thanks Razl.

 

[razl]

Seriously, much appreciated all.

I am still interested in reviving this, but I've just been too busy to put a new process together. Not to beat a dead horse but the forum change just threw me a big old curve ball right in the middle of too many other projects I have going on elsewhere.

I'm probably still a few weeks away from having it but I have not abandoned it. All that said, anyone else is certainly invited to jump in and keep the train going in the meantime!

 

[LatAm]

Yes Razl, absolutely second all of the above. Hope they were able to figure out how to make possible what you used to do, but on the new platform. I seem to remember @LA Guy expressed his interest in getting this working for you...?

Edit: Just saw your response above... Great to hear there is still a possibility that you will be able to bring this back to life at some point!

 

[cuongtelecoms]

Hopefully that this one will be back again soon. Appriciate @ what Razl has done.

I thought I would take up Razl's mantle while he is on break. I haven't looked at the B&S in-depth since the changeover to Xenforo. Had fun digging for the best new stuff.

I am only considering items that:

-Say "NWT" in the title
-Have good pictures (proof of tags attached, proof of jackets + pants it's if a suit, good size, good angles, good lighting)
-Have measurements
-Appeal to my subjective sense of style​

Note that I've sorted them by jacket size number for your viewing pleasure! (Though not distinguished by length). I think this should be a feature on the forum.

Also, while the new feature for sorting by item type is great, it's still tedious to navigate the new B&S. Some things I have proposed to @alexSF and @razl as improvements (in order of importance):

1). Being able to close the listings of items that have been sold via the "old school method" of exchanging Paypal info. This is leading to lots of clutter. It does no service to buyers trying to find stuff. See my latest set of posts starting HERE in the support thread

2). Adding back premium functionality for daily bumps like in the old system. Dedicated sellers should be able to pay a small fee to bump their stuff every 24 hours, etc.

3). Being able to sort by size for suits, sportcoats, shirts, shoes, etc. This is talked about a lot and would add greatly to the user friendliness of the B&S

4). Being able sort by condition. NWT vs NWOT vs used. Force people to pick from these 3 options when they create a listing, just like on eBay

5). A nit to pick, but the "Sportsjackets" category should be changed to "Sportcoats." No one here says "SJ." They say "SC"

6). Along similar lines, it would be helpful to simplify the Coats and Jackets categories to match eBay's nomeclature. After looking through a lot of the listings, I notice that there is confusion over the definitions of "coats," "jackets" and "sportsjackets."

Simplying it to just three options---- "sportcoats & blazers", "coats and jackets" and "vests"---makes more sense.

Much, much improved.
