    Default Habbox Trade Team

    http://www.habboxforum.com/showthrea...55#post7872855

    Have you ever struggled to find that furni that you really want? Constantly spamming your console and asking your friends? Are you banging your head against the wall in frustration (please see a doctor)? We, the Rare Values department, are introducing a new service by the name of the Habbox Trade Team!

    The Habbox Trade Team is a service where you can tell us what furni you are looking for and at what price, and we will make it our goal to look for that furni for you. All you have to do is PM HxRareValues and fill in the following form:

    Habbo Name:
    Furni Wanted:
    Credits Offering*:
    Deadline:
    *If you are asking for multiple furni, please state the offer per furni.
    Upon receiving the PM, we will work hard to answer to your request and then sell it to you at the price you asked for, no more, no less. There isn't a guarantee that we will fulfill all requests but you will be notified about any change in the process via HabboxForum IM. We take a zero tolerance policy on abuse of this system and anyone found to be abusing it will be permanently banned from using it again.

    If you every have any questions or problems, feel free to let myself or a Head Staff Member know.

    Actually quite like the idea, Not 100% on how it works, But surely they should pay a deposit?

    Credit to @Inseriousity. for the idea and after much discussion (so many scenarios were thought of and solutions as well), it is great idea and if we don't try, we don't know what will happen.

    I don't see how it is a way to lose money, the user will have their offer so they don't pay any extra and the HxTT don't lose money unless the user abandons the trade although the HxTT member still has the furni and that user will be banned.

    The system is currently in its beta stages with it being a completely new idea so we have no previous system to refer to and have to start it from scratch. We hope to do more of this with other departments and in general so if you have any ideas of services that Habbox could provide, anyone can feel free to share! We also welcome feedback on this current idea and how we can improve it but we'll have to ask for patience with it as well to test it out.

    As for a deposit, it has been explained to RVRs that it's a high risk service (hence our zero tolerance policy of abusing it, no second chances) but I'd rather avoid solutions to these issues that involve the user trusting us (which means it'd be limited to only those who are already die-hard users of Habbo) and come up with solutions behind the scenes that'll make it less risky for RVRs.

    also dont get why they have to pm an account only the manager has access to, cut out the middle man and make a forum the department can see all threads in

    Yeah seems like a very big risk for the Rare Values team to go buy a variety of furniture, and the person buying no longer needs..

    Good idea though I guess.
    Search Varnius for Habbo's Official Trading Room.

    Perhaps I'll sneakily request a bunch of furni which are about to plummet in value, stall for a week and then the dept makes a massive loss.
