Increasing rep.
Hi, I've done two successful trades through bartertown and a few through reddit. My question is how do I and the people I've traded with go about increasing our reps.
I go by standard rules unless we work something out in advance.
I will hold items with offers pending for one day before looking into other offers.
I will ship overseas and to Canada but will not ship first in those trades.
I respond to messages within one day of receiving them please do the same.

Re: Increasing rep.
First, ONLY the trades that go/start/originate through Bartertown are eligible for improving your references. I only stress this because a trade done on reddit does not count here unless it involved Bartertown.
Assuming the above qualification is met, the other trader has to click the "post a reference" tab above, then fill it out and submit it. You should do the same for your Bartertown trade partners. If you have completed a trade, then fill out the form and submit. I normally confirm with the other trader that they are satisfied and we are good to post feedback.
If you have left a reference for someone, and they have not left one for you, then just send them a polite PM asking them to leave your reference. Most folks do not mind, and likely just got tied up and forgot. Or don't know how to do it.

Re: Increasing rep.
Some good info, but one small error. A trade must do more than just involve BTown. To qualify for a ref, it must originate here.Imaginos wrote:I only stress this because a trade done on reddit does not count here unless it involved Bartertown.

Lower rating? You ship first.

I think what this situation needs is some imagination.

Want my help with a BTR or backout? All messages sent/posted should be in CHRONOLOGICAL order. Otherwise, I just won't read it.
