I suggest that the moderators leave the Sale/Trade threads open until the buyer receives the item and has a chance to leave feedback. I don't have an axe to grind on any of my purchases, but the thought occurred to me on a recent transaction that it would have been nice to have the opportunity to leave feedback for the seller. This would help us in the future to be able to look back at a person's transactions and gain an understanding of that person before entrusting them with our money.
Like I said....I have no current complaints that I'm trying to address with this suggestion. But, I think it would've been nice to be able to leave positive feedback for somebody so that they could be viewed as a more trusted seller in the future. The burden of research would be on the buyer, and I'm not suggesting any kind of feedback or rating system. I just want to see the threads left open past the initial purchase for the buyer to be able to say how long it took to get the item, and whether the item was in the condition described in the ad.
Cordially,
Chris
