So basically the user can list what they are willing to sell while being able to curate their own collection that isn't for sale. I do like the match up feature but I also dislike the amount of people posting low ball offers. I'm aware it is up to us to decide if we do want to sell but if the user can put up his own price (option of lowest offer willing to accept) it would help make match making easier than for me to disregard every email knowing these offers are low or the fact that I have no intention of selling what I actually collect/curate.

have you tried clicking on the choice COLLECT in the top left corner under the site name where it shows the 3 buttons BUY/SELL/COLLECT?

and then on the right side there are choices for Display: Haves&Wants / Haves / Wants / ALL

or did i misunderstand your question?

I believe that's is what I did, list everything on my Collect but I'm still getting matches. (Probably have to check out the site when I have time if I did make an error on my part)

Maybe my previous post wasn't so well thought out, as I was in a school lecture and wasn't fully engaged with the response.

Hey Vokuhl,

To ensure matches work at the highest efficiency possible, the default condition so far has been that we are all notified of everything we might possibly be interested in. In some ways this is temporary as our intent has always been to let everyone fully customize their notifications. To an extent you can already do this by going to your Account settings and setting how often to get notified of matches.

As things progress we will add the ability to set ranges for notification (ie let me know if someone offers me within 20% of what I want on this) and the ability to preorder and deposit order products months in advance.

Hope that answers your question.

Hey guys,

Just an update that banner sigs have now auto-updated to a new size to be more compliant with the widest possible selection of message board sigs. If you had trouble on another board, all should now be well, but keep us posted if you hear different.

Cheers!

This auto-matching feature is neat. Was updating my collection and found a few that want some that I'm considering selling. Been away from ShelfLife for a few months and boy has it's content been updated.

Is there a way to contact the interested party I'm matched up with? Cause I attempted to sell and all this information came up and the lazy in me wanted to not fill out that information especially the shipping quotes.
