As I cannot get access to MY eBId, Ive come to forum messages, and still would like the term UNSED added, thats a very simple addition to the first current two.
AS for my stuff, Id get a bit ruffled about someone telling me I could not list something I had printed for me as a publisher to be sold under NEW.
Just as I could have a book published, its NEW and current and 'in print' while the original publisher/printer has stock, then its classed as out of print.
I think the word NEW is being misinterpreted, its NEW in its catagory regarding its condition we are talking about NOT its age of the item. I have a stock of books that Im a distributor for & by the book dealing fratertity its still NEW because my stock is direct & NOT been sold to any individual yet.
I have a stock of books too that came in when we had a shop, (closed in 2000), yet the books are not used, they are as mint and wrapped as the day they were printed. Condition is either NEW or UNUSED, so I dont think that fair to call these USED, quite by who exactly?
The topic will run on until eBid see enough input to add the third option, as all owners of a site will read the forum messages although an odd message to support may be good, loads of individual messages may not be a brilliant idea maybe filling an inbox about one topic!
A french based auction site studies forum messages & has deleted bad comments & restricted postings to members only, and act on what they read without much of a prompting.
Being a newcommer on here it takes time to get used to a new format & by now you will see I have listings in my specialist field, some as a test of response from visitors here.
So in a nutshell, my 'NEW' is something that has NOT been owned by anyone else than the maker/producer/distributor/agent/shopkeeper if you follow, related to what it is.
