Title: Question-- Can I sell an account here? Hear me out!
Post by: messageme on July 31, 2011, 06:03 am
I created an account here over 2 months ago, right before the site got everywhere. It's below 2500, but still kinda up there. I would ONLY sell it to a BUYER that is also under 2500, and what I'm hoping to do is give my account away to someone that has a buyer account under 2500 and has been around awhile but didnt get around to signing up for a selling account before shit got crazy. My main account is also one that is under 2500.

The account has never been used, but is a selling account. If it cannot be sold for whatever reason, then that's fine. I will find some use for it. But selling it would be an easier way for me to get BTC at the moment than any other option. I'm not even sure how much I'd sell it for, I suppose whatever people think it'd be worth to them. Anyway, an answer to this would be great. I wont proceed with anything until I know whether it'd be okay or not, because I'm not here to break rules. I love this place, I buy from this place. After I get an answer, feel free to message me. I'll probably make another post if I get the OK, to see if there's even interest. Thanks everyone.

I am against it in principal but you have addressed most of my moralistic concerns. One thought is that you got it for free and now a buyer would not pay Silk for its worth. Anyone Old School would not buy from you because they probably already a seller account so you may be tempted to sell to a recent addition which I (and you apparently also) would consider dishonest. I suggest you announce the sale and the buyer publicly at the very least and discuss how you would get Silk his cut.   

What is the name? Is it so clever it is worth something?

I see nothing good can come from this except you make money.

Whoever buys the account is trying to represent something they are not.
I se a lot of seller accounts up for sale, which means a buyer can't even fully trust a seller who has a good rep. Just Great :(
