    Default iTrader: can we have something for giveaways?

    Hi, Nicklfire

    Could we have a "freebie" option instead of seller? The buyer could still be a buyer (it's just that the price is free).

    I never sell my things once I've finished with them, I just give them away. I appreciate being able to connect my tanks or extra substrate, etc, with someone who is looking for those things, through BCA.

    However, all of these transactions on iTrader list me as a "seller." I'm really not, and I'm not very comfortable with that label.

    However, with the exception of payment, everything else about the transaction is the same as a buy/sell or trade relationship and it's valuable to list the transaction on iTrader. It's very important to know whether the person giving away the item or picking it up is reliable, shows up on time and so on. People have driven more than an hour to my house just to pick up a cat scratch post or a used tank, for example. If I wasn't there when they arrived, they'd be pretty upset. And, I would be upset if I had stayed home to show a tank or filter to someone who didn't show.

    What do you think? (I'm not sure what other people here think, either.)

    Why not use the "trade" option?
