This is a really good idea, especially when you've made a deal with, for example, Joey. You add the swap onto SwapitShop and tell Joey the link.

Say Joey goes off and the swap is now live. Anybody can win it now.

So if you could reserve the swap, maybe you have to enter a code, and the only way of buying is using that code. Or you can put in a name, and that person is the only one who can buy it.

Also if the swap is up for 14 days, but Joey hasn't won it with a day left, you could maybe take off the reservation so everyone can bid on it!

Your thoughts please...

i think its alot of work over a small problem as all you have to do is list it as rreserved and then in the description write joey so that he can buy and most ppl will always avoid that

so gd luck but i think thats an over worked idea

Not really, and they'd use PHP instead of HTML anyway...

Basically, if you only want a certain person to buy your swap because they have requested it or something.

I can see why you see it as a good idea but if you make sure that, as your example used Joey, is online when you add the link and then pm him the link then I don't think anyone would even get a chance to see the link in the time it takes Joey to click the link and win the swap.

Especially if you make sure you put the swap on during SwapitShop hours and then it can be processed quickly and Joey can just keep pasting the link into his address bar and pressing enter to check if it is live yet.
