Is bonanza deleting posts about creating more sales?

Hi,

Every time we try to engage anyone on these Community Boards, it seems our Comments disappear.

Why have the Community Boards if we’re not allowed to use them to help make the selling experience better?

Can’t we even talk about Setting up Selling Groups on Facebook or Reddit, or anything?

Why is Bonanza Deleting comments about trying to create engagement on the system? Isn’t that the whole point? To sell more product to make more money for both the sellers and the Platform?

I hope you got the drift of your curiosity answered below as I doubt if THIS will be around come Monday. Best of Luck with any sales here.

I don’t think so

Generally speaking, there is a lot of “managerial editing” done here.

I have had posts like this one I’m typing right now disappear because of some mysterious code Bonz has re “content”.

So type whatever you have to say fast and hope a few others get to read it before it’s gone! LOL

Any criticism of the site gets deleted as well, no matter that it’s true

Used to have the discussion forums, as a matter of fact..lots of them on many topics…unfortunately there were those who did not “play nice” caused a lot of turmoil and hurt feelings…so all discussion forums are now hidden (removed from the community forum page) which is now monitored more closely

our old forums were (I still have the list on my computer)
General
Introduce Yourself
Inspire Simplicity
About Bonanza
Services
Items Wanted
Technology
Promote your booth (only one is still visible)
Seller disscussions
Drama (this was not a public one..was a free for all but was never for serious things)
On a Personal Note
Games

as well as a forum for main categories

I recall the Items WANTED, but not the others. Would be nice if they brought at least that category back.

ccmom July 19, 2021

Items wanted would be a nice one to have back and maybe seller discussion…..of course the Promote your booth and the games are still here. Things on the internet remain if you can find them. I do visit them on occasion as there is still great info there

Wow! Sorry I missed all that. Sure sounds like fun! LOL

ccmom July 19, 2021

Littleblackdog..it actually was fun..small, close knit community then and my sales then were better also without all the new stuff bonz has added over the years..

MommyOf2QTsScentWork July 24, 2021

I remember the old forums. Much easier to navigate and a lot of useful information posted. I agree, having Items Wanted category would be nice.

Why bother complaining, list your stuff here there and everywhere
Does not matter which site you must share your money with as much as the amount
Honestly the cost of shipping and fees makes prices higher then they should
Those flea markets are becoming the better place to sell again
That’s what’s real, that’s a good tip and if it gets removed this forum is not about helping each other at all

To Answer Brilliantly

Remember these tips:

  • Use links to other sources to support your opinions
  • Use examples where possible
  • Put yourself in the inquirers shoes: what extra info would be helpful?

Should I post a comment or an answer?

You can only post one answer, so make it count. Maybe your reply is more fitting as a comment instead?

Post an answer for:

  • Replies that directly and specifically answer the original question

Post a comment for:

  • "Thanks," "Me too," "I agree," or "Works for me" types of replies
  • When you would like the original poster to provide more details
  • When you have more to add to someone else's question or answer
