is it me or is the sites for sale forum filled with PURE JUNK?

    There are maybe 1 site that I can consider buying for every 50... It's just getting ridiculous... DP should create sub forums for turnkey, established & premium sites with some rules, like you cannot sell your site in the established sub forum if the site is less then 3 months old or something along those lines...

    What else really pisses me off is people using such phrases as "HUGE FORUM" or "HUGE REVENUE" or "VERY GOOD TRAFFIC" but what they mean is

    "HUGE FORUM" = about 100 outdated threads
    "HUGE REVENUE" = $50/month
    "VERY GOOD TRAFFIC" = 1000 uniques/month

    Anyone else has some input?

    The subforums idea does sound very good actually. DP would probably need an additional moderator for that though, I don't know if they're down with adding to staff right now.

    Well just because you would only buy 1 out of every 50 of the sites advertised is not really that a big deal , this forum has thousands of members who buy websites on a daily basis so the other 49 of them sites may be of use to someone else ;)

    I don't think you can police everything, at the end of the day the discretion lies with the buyer. If you think that a particular site is exaggerating just skip it. If there is to be so many sub forums, it would be a nightmare just to find which sub forums to go to. Also your expectations may be different from other members, you may define huge as 1000 000 members while I may feel 10 000 is considered huge.

    I think the present arrangement works just fine.
