The Energon Pub

Greetings from Crave!

The Crave team is in full swing for February, and we are bringing you more of the features you want. Last week we released a new comments system to let fans share opinions on listings and ask questions of sellers. Coming later this week is a good price button so fans can help fans find the best deals on the marketplace. Read more about it and see our listing highlights below.

We’ve had an awesome response to the new comment system
Fans have been:
-Asking questions about pricing and shipping
-Sharing opinions on molds
-Asking for more photos
-Providing background info and history on listings
Remember, sellers and fans who have already commented get notified when you post a comment to a listing, so responses happen quickly.

Later this week…
Keep your eyes peeled for the Good Price button due out in a few days. This new feature will be available on every listing page, and allows you to tell other users if you’ve found a great deal on Crave. Of course, if it’s a really good deal you may want to buy it yourself!

Thinking about buying or selling for the first time on Crave?
Here’s what some of our recent customers have to say:

"I've been selling on Crave for two months and it has been a great experience. Mostly smooth transactions, but whenever I had a problem, customer service was very understanding and willing to help. They have obviously listened, because I have seen some great changes happen. I really like the new comments feature, because it helps create a fun community of Transformer fans." – Craig Chappell

"When I bought my Masterpiece Skywarp, all I could say was wow. At first I was a little hesitant to buy from a stranger, but I was highly impressed with the outcome. The toy was not damaged in the least bit, and the delivery was remarkably quick. I will be using Crave over and over again from now on." -Lindi Walter

Remember that selling is free on Crave. See the Most Wanted Transformers list or get started selling here.

We always want to here what users and other TF fans think about the site. Send us an email (info@crave.com) with your thoughts and suggestions.

Erin & Kabe, Crave founders

Is there going to be a good price/not-so-good price, or just "good" like the Facebook "Like" button?

Does the "more info on shipping" mean pushing the cost of shipping to the thumbnail (next to the price)? That would be great (and would make shopping around far more efficient).

I do like the idea of guiding sale prices to being reasonable, whenever I buy/sell on eBay (or anywhere really, especially on the internet), I always aim for the bottom 3 prices and go from there (for example: 14.99$, 16.99$, & 19.99$. My sale price will be in that range, and/or I will only buy from that range.)

Also - Are non-Facebook accounts near the horizon at all? (<~ been missing out on deals because I don't want to use Facebook Dx and ctrl+click)

I got a Tuner Mudflap that I wanna sell for 50 bucks and link it to my facebook account so everyone can see that I look as crazy as my prices...

Just kidding. But you see where Im going with that, right ???

Err I like eBay, BBTS, and Amazon. I haven't been very impressed with the things that TF fans have been selling on Crave. I want to see some better quality G1 figures for lower prices than it is. I mean cmon. Waste 13 dollars on a Brawn that has a broken arm and extreme paint wear, when you can get it for the same price but better quality on eBay or Amazon? Please, crave users, step up your game. I give Crave a 3.9/5, not my cup of tea.
