Hi!
I have been member of GH for more than 2 months. Mostly I just checking stuff and buy things I like. Also did make couple deal so far.
- Now I want to make a post that I can look for some more keycap set that I want and been chasing after it for months but I can't.
- Do I have to do something else or pay something then I can post ?
- Thanks

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Can someone explain how trades work. Does each party just ship each other the item?

Typically yes. Always ask for proof photos even in trades.

Depending on how high of a value an item is some people pay each other the value of said trade item(s) via PayPal or other payment processor until the trade is complete then send payments back to each other.

Also ask for feedback references either from here or elsewhere, many people use heatware.

All good advice.  If the item value is high enough, you can also have both parties ship to a trusted third party, who waits until both items arrive to then ship to their ultimate destination.  It'll cost a few more dollars in shipping and transit time, but the peace of mind may be worth it.

Not every subforum counts towards post count.

And just an FYI even once you post the thread has to be approved by a moderator.

This might be a stupid question, but do I also need to fulfill the minimum post requirements to post a WTB?
It’s just that the tutorial explicitly states “Sale” posts can only be posted by members who meet the minimum requirements  :)

I’m just desperate for a Nautilus Ergodox kit  :confused:

hey guys.

Is it ok to put up non-keyboard sale items such as a laptop? I vaguely remember it to be ok but want to be sure.

Thanks

Looking for a little guidance. I've sold stuff here before without issue, but for some reason, my current post isn't being approved by the moderators. I've locked previous threads in the classifieds, and have a post count over 25. I'm sure I'm missing something. Have the requirements changed? Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks
