just a note, and I forgot to search for this sorry!!

Heatware - ive used this for years now, 3rd party rating system for people who buy/sell/trade things...helps at least a little bit give people a reference

or -

forum rating system there is a forum I have been part of for years at www.pcperspective.com and the forums have this simple trading system of its own, all you do is put positive, negative or neutral and a note and also a link to the thread where item was sold ...this is a nice system as well because it keeps it "in house"

Not sure of the added lag or resources that this would cause but just an idea!!

 

its a great idea ive been wanting to say something also after purchasing some stuff from a fellow SL member. btw eveything went great, smooth and quick trans.

 

It is a great idea and it is something that I want to incorporate into the site. I want to get the classifieds out of the forums and into their own area... a dedicated classifieds script.

I went to pcper.com but couldn;t find the rating system you mentioned.

I will get to this soon, I promise. I have to rewrite our search script first!
