If we are already on a yearly plan can we extend our subscription for a year by paying this month, or is there no way to take advantage of this?

On the note of foreign...being able to specify black border foreign revised would be sweet.

I'd be interested and have a few matches on your wishlist on my tradelist...take a look let me know.  Thanks

Sebi said he "owes the site 0.85"...  if he's only incurred .85 he wouldn't owe anything...and if he sold $41 he wouldn't owe either 0.85 or have 9.15 in credit...he'd have 7.17 in credit.  So something is off either with the seller not realizing how much he sold or the fees being wrong.  It's likely the former, but the point I was making was that sebi nor the previous poster had addressed it.

Yeah, if a premium account let you specify your own buy list a commission system would work or it'd be worth $20-$30/month if you wanted to just link buylist carts to paypal and not bother with commissions/reimbursement policies/etc (which would avoid a layer of complexity).

This is a bit myopic, they are also very good at getting an initial paid customer base for third party partnership purposes, identifying paying early adopters of your service and being able to gather data about those who are willing to pay for your service.  They give you information on how best to monetize your service. 

When somebody buys the $x,000 tier of a kickstarter they typically meet and/or communicate with the developers...this is not just for the edification of the "donator" but rather a recognition that the developer values the input of someone who values their service to that level.

I for one, think this is a great plan to get you a piece of some of the value that deckbox is adding to my life.  It's just not quite there yet in terms of pricing for me.  Once you have some of these features premium:
-mobile apps
-the ability to have inventory segmentation (multiple inventories or a field for custom "locations" of individual cards)
-notes on individual cards in inventory
-scans uploaded of individual cards
-linking individual cards or editions to decks
-Report generation for insurance claims
-MTG content (premium articles/videos)
I'd be willing to pay the price, but for now I don't think the value is there for me at the current price level.

Good luck Sebi!

The mods are making it clear that being marked as delivered is sufficient proof of delivery as far as the onus on the sender is concerned.  I do not view this as the mods "changing" the rules, but rather issuing a clarification of the correct interpretation of the rules.

Is that proof infallible, no...it does happen on occasion that usps makes a mistake and incorrectly scans as delivered; but it certainly establishes a reasonable level of proof that the sender cannot manipulate...only the buyer or usps could be in the wrong if the package is marked as delivered and the sender claims it hasn't arrived.

As an additional note, I have had this happen before...but the package (or insurance) has been recovered in each case by opening a case with usps.  I do believe that a very reasonable policy would be as follows (I do agree that it could be communicated more clearly through rewording in the rules):
a) Tracking indicating that a package has been delivered is sufficient for the burden on the sender with the following 2 caveats:
b) If the receiver claims the package did not arrive, the sender must open a formal case with usps (by calling 800-ask-usps) and provide a case number to the receiver.  Upon doing so the sender has completed all necessary obligations.
c) Both parties may additionally agree before the trades are sent that signature confirmation and/or insurance must be purchased.  If such agreements are noted in the trade chat, a sender must furnish proof of purchase for these services as well as a signature copy (if sig conf) upon request in addition to b)

In specific note on your trade, I don't understand why neither of you have obtained a formal investigation and corresponding case number through usps's national customer service...talking to your local po is NOT the same thing.  If what you are saying is true, and your mailman claims to you he did not deliver it, usps will formally investigate and likely find the package.

I do see it as abuse potential since if someone is in a btr then by changing their real name info it is not obvious to people who read the btrs that he was involved when he initiates a trade. 

Like the user I emailed you about.  I read the btr's so I'm familiar with his real name since that is how he was identified in the btrs...but now that he deleted it, if he had opened a trade with me  I wouldn't recognize him.

But more than abuse potential, I see it as convenience to be able to identify people I've dealt with before.  Take me for instance, I've never entered my real name info, but now if I do people who've dealt with me before won't recognize me when I open trades with them.  There are several legitimate reasons someone may change their real name info:
-an actual name change (through petition or marriage)
-use of a new nickname
-deciding to use abbreviations
-a change in one's want for privacy
-they had simply left it blank previously
and all of these will make a user unfamiliar to his/her previous trade partners.

Something must be off if you aren't able to do it after two weeks, cause this user had multiple hundreds of feedback.  What made me think he had changed his user name is that in one BTR the copied chat log had his full name whereas in a later one it showed his user name.

Is it the case that the chat uses your real name if you have populated it in settings and your user name if not?  If so, I don't think this is good functionality, since in this case it would have meant that the user was able to alter how he was displayed to others in trade chats by deleted/changing his settings info.  Can I change my real name to Sebi and make myself look like you in chat?  That doesn't seem good.

Or is there something else I'm missing?  Maybe in one btr the poster just replaced his user name with his real one?
