Online Trading Site for Cork City

    Hi everybody,
    I have developed a website similar to Buy and Sell and Ebay, in that it allows users to trade goods online.
    http://corkcityclassifieds.ning.com/
    I will be doing sites for Dublin and other cities shortly.
    The major difference is that it focuses on Cork City and not all of Ireland. I like the idea of focusing on a city, as you know that whatever item you are interested in is only within short driving distance of you (if you are living in that city of course). It's also possible to upload pictures on my site which isn't possible on Buy and Sell. Pictures make a big difference to buyer confidence I think.

    If you feel the site is a good idea, please sign up and post an item or 2, so that we can build up a market place.
    If you are uploading photos, make sure that they are small in size (smaller then a business card), big ones dont get accepted.

    There is no transaction fee for posting on the site.

    Please let me know if you notice any bugs on the site. The Ning platform that it runs on belongs to a start up company, so there may be performance issues and downtime from time to time.
    Any suggestions for enhancements are welcome too. I hope to introduce some functional improvements over time, like the ability to rate buyers and sellers. I will also be changing the theme of the design to give it a better look.

    I don't make any money out of this, but I hope this will be a success as I hope to introduce more applications like this in the future.

    MMMmmmmmmmm...................
    Locking this for the time being for a simple reason that is still to be resolved on boards.

    Using boards for market research and outsourcing ideas! In theory it makes perfect sense and i agree with it but mods do not own boards the Admins do and there is on goin technicalities regarding the said issue. Will update ASAP once i get the nod*

    Thanks for moving this post to the cork section. Regarding the reference to market research, I'd like to point out that this is non profit website.
