Hi Shawn , This is really a good move and progress for DP , It will be more Authentic day-by-day 1.) How about a extra reputation added to premium members by default once they get itrader, Well this will help to add green rep's which will benefit premium members and so the greens will show their authenticity or value their rating apart from itraders. 2.) How about having a Escrow option for premium members , I would like to see it someday, Definitely you can charge 0.3% for money uploads that's DP's benefit and definitely you can make it clear that Escrow is an extra facility for premium users and doesn't involve any DP staff or Mod's intervention , So use it at your own risk / decision. DP will never release it for anyone. But for sure genuine buyers and sellers who have premium account will use it genuinely. I understand that hassle if a dispute arise but then you can clear the rules that no DP intervention in that case its just a EXTRA facility for premium users only (GENUINE buyers / sellers wont have any hassle and will use ESCROW happily), What you get to monetize is 0.3% of amount uploaded as some other website do when they provide such facility. Please add PAYPAL , CC, Google checkout, Moneybookers and some other popular payment processors. 3.) How about some kind of small badge or pic or logo beside the username or online / offline status button. It will be some kind of button for premium users apart from the bold text titles .
1. No sorry. 2. Probably not going to happen. There are already services out there that do it (and do it well). http://www.escrow.com for example 3. Yeah, that will probably happen. Just been too busy to make the graphic.
Can u tell me what happens if i buy premium membership for 1 month and then if our profile was modified does it stay after a month or just goes back to normal ??
Isnt it possible like leave it as it is.. but then its not editable that way we get to keep the cool profile page
finally, been waiting for this feature. just made a payment for 1 year. i really hope though that premium members have more advantage in the Marketplace forum just to separate the serious sellers from the not-so-serious ones.
I sure hope so. I'm going to wait a little bit before I buy it. Especially if Shawn makes the names into Bold or something, then I'm defiantly going for it.
