Title says it all, i want to know where you shop for your goodies on escrow.
Do you use this forum as a guide where to find what ?
Do you use the somewhat defunct trade channel ?
Or do you just cruise along the highway and look over the escrows for bargains ?
Anwyway, let's pretend this is something like marketing research. Tell me where you want me as a supplier to advertise my goods, and where you want to have em put up for sale...

I shop around for best price using Trade channel in-game and lurking on this message board.
By the way, can you send me a quote for cruiser size named afterburner?

Ok, the trade channel is just utter spam and my head cannot stand the constant crap in there so avoid the place like the plague.
Escrow i use now and again but its a bit featureless to use a lot. Needs more searching capabilities etc...
This forum i look at a fair bit but i nearly always find things in here are very overpriced but there are a few good bargains and some stuff is around what i would expect.
And then theres the station markets. I feel it gives a good indication of how people are selling things and how people are fighting for market dominance by undercutting or trying to produce better :)

Bazaar channel.
Naga loot shop is pretty good and there are some other people out there who are reliable.
I don't use escrows at all.

I've sat there for six hours without anyone ever saying a thing, before now: I never go there any more.

Spent 5 mins in the Bazarr, and left.
Market channel was the same
Trade, I dont actually read whats going on in there most of the time, just block the large spam, and keep posting my sell order. Usually get a buyer in a few mins.
I also post here. (Duh)
I also use www.eve-marketplace.com
I also have my own site if people would like to place sale wares and buy orders. Mainly for when corp actually starts moving large amounts of stuff. Havent updated it lately.
And Lastly I spam local chats once in a while in the freeway systems...
thats the job of traveling merchant
:P

Bazaar channel, my own hangar, and this forum.
Escrow is useless, 3000x the same bpc scams etc. etc. too big of a pain to bother now, it was awesome the first few weeks ( the good old days lol )
Trade channel isn't the right name for what goes on in there. Insane SPAM channel would come closer.

So i gather there still is NO decent way to sell named items ingame ?
No way to reach a wide public without having to spam local, market, bazaar AND trade AND put your stuff on escrow in one of a few select systems.
Well, i use escrows in Yulai myself and advertise em regularly on these boards.
The bpc scams drive me nuts too, as do the useless crappy items overpriced into absurdness on there.
Maybe a few of us loot traders should setup an alt corp just for trading and use a system near the highway that doesnt get many escrows yet ? Then we could make a name and make people come to us ?
Cause even tho my escrows are set in yulai and are priced below market (and at maybe 50% of Naga prices in most cases), they still wont sell decently.
?
