on another note:
lets say someone decided to sell a resellable phantom slot to a buyer, when the buyer decides to sell it after he's done, can the resellable phantom account holder (original seller) ask the buyer $2 commission of his final sale price? after he sells, his next buyer and every one after that will also have to pay $2.00 from their sales as well? becasue every sale goes through the original resellable phantom seller. i'm asking this because I'm the buyer. I paid $10 when buying the resellable phantom slot. but but one who sold me received $8.00 he had to pay $2.00 for the resellable phantom account holder (original seller). when I sell also have to pay $2.00
What do you mean by
can? Are you asking if it's allowed, if it shouldn't be done, or something else?
To clarify the situation for others: I will usually offer members who buy phantoms from me the opportunity to sell their phantom down the line, up to a point, in exchange for a $2 fee. I do not tell them about the arrangement until after they have completed the transaction, as I may choose not to do it with a specific slot for any number of reasons. As far as the buyers are concerned, they are purchasing a phantom. If I decide to offer them this 'service', I'll contact them and let them know the details. As the buyers are under the impression they were buying a phantom, the opportunity to sell it and recoup some of the initial cost should be welcomed as a nice option - which is exactly what it is, an option. Anyone offered this service is never under any obligation to use it. If they decide not to use it, they keep the slot as they would a regular phantom, with them not having to pay any additional money or do anything else. As you can see, this could be quite handy. Think of how many games you purchased phantoms of, only to beat the game and delete it to make more space. Wouldn't it be lovely to get some money back?
Ashtonreeves purchased a slot from me, but unlike all of the other sales I've done, I told him beforehand about the option to sell in exchange for a small fee. In fact, I believe that's what pushed him to buy the slot, as I seem to recall that he was looking for a resell. Regardless, he was well aware of the conditions of the transaction, and I haven't heard from him since he purchased the slot, which went down without a problem.
@Ashton: Why ask the question in the thread now? I don't have a problem with the question at all, since I'm not doing anything sneaky or the like, but why right after my last post? Did you think my sarcastic remark at the end of my last post was directed toward you (it wasn't toward you, but the members who have explicitly detailed the process in the past few pages), do you think I was trying to undermine you with my question about the PS4 sharing, or am I looking too much into this, with you just being curious about the arrangement?
