I 100% vouch for that idea of @zack101
Also a subscription-based system would be better, like you pay say for a package of five want to sell threads ($75 for example) and you can sell 5 items in a row.
Possible issue is to assign a mod who shall verify ownership or ability to deliver the item exposed for sale.

Maybe because that would be a big part of the amount?
Just assume someone has his high karma Reddit account for $75 but has no plan to offer a service. If they pay $30, well it obviously seems too high.

A commission-based system would require a lot of work on the backend though.

I'll add in some thoughts and I'm not sure this is a good or a bad idea but floating ideas is almost always good.

This would be easier to manage if there was an escrow system in place or a payment system in place that was owned by BHW. Otherwise I could see a slew of SL threads arguing that one did or did not pay X amount.

I would also think that a minimum payment would be required (no less than the cost of a BST) as there is still work involved in the approval process and that needs to be covered.

ALL communication about the buying and selling would have to be done in PMs and not Skype/email/etc for transparency sake.

I could actually think of a slew of other restrictions/rules but that might choke the idea out and I may be over thinking what would make sense.

If commission will be more than BST cost, then that won't make any sense to sell via WTS, it will make sense only if it has less rate.

The whole idea of this thread was to save the $30 as much as possible for single item sales

The work involved gives me cause to think that it should be more expensive to sell that way.

As I already wrote, this can't be done here,

Also I think $30 is not much for this great marketplace
