Ban on selling free SIM cards?

POSTED BY: highguyuk 1 year, 8 months ago

Hey,

I'd like to suggest an addition to the FS/FT boards, that SIM cards with no credit on cannot be resold.

They are readily available FOC on the internet, why should people try and sell them on? (They don't on these forums because HUKD's generally aren't stupid, but it just clutters up the forums).

Any thoughts?

I don't see that many for sale, so I don't agree that it "Clutters up" the forum.

I'm sure that HUKD'ers point out if they are available for free elsewhere.

If the selling price of these is nothing, people shouldn't be selling them for something IMO.

Same as adding money on top of the RRP...

the only thing i see continually clogging up the bards is members comtinually posting the same stuff, although i must admit i think the FS rules needs a tidy up, they should state the same rules thats in the code of conduct rules, as for free sim cards i dont think any members here would pay for them, so best just to ignore or post links to free ones

I think the FS forum needs to be taken down and disposed of. Far too many time wasters and far, far too many cheapskates looking for an unreasonable bargain.

They are available free, but shops charge for them as well.
I don't agree with the RRP rule in any case.

Some do pay for them if they are "Special", but I hardly see any at all, and don't see them cluttering up the forum in any case. Maybe they are there, and I tune them out.

Where's your stalker today.

Hardly a reason to take it down? There are rules to deal with time-wasters, it's up to the OP of the thread to guide it in the right direction.

There are a few cheeky offers, but no harm done 99% of the time, again it's up to the OP of the thread to report members spoiling the thread if that is what they are doing.
Unless the OP puts "No offers under x price" all is fair in my humble opinion.
