As we continue to analyse cube sales, we have decided to remove the price brackets in which cubes must be listed for. So why the change?

Previously it wasn't always easy for ALL members to earn enough cube funds to compete with other members selling cubes. Over the last year, with the addition of various offerwalls, there are more ways than ever to earn sufficient cube funds, allowing all members a chance of selling cubes.

As always, we don't like to say if this will be a permanent change, but we will see how things go.

Buy member's cube or Sell a cube

PLUS... The first member to buy a member's cube (any value) will receive a FREE 2 week Premium membership upgrade/extension.

GO... Buy member's cube

After all this time I still strongly believe system was better then where there were less ways to earn cube funds. System with price brackets made tons of cubes at same value and price, so there was less chance for a member to sell his cube (if there are 200 exactly same things on a shelf, who guarantees that exactly yours will be picked?). Lots of ways to earn cube funds led to huge devaluation of cubes and majority of cubes that were sold after these brackets were implemented, were of two types:
a) those for 1 pound (with usually 299 cube funds, just below the next price bracket)
b) those price beyond last price bracket and with a lot of cube funds added (eg. 15.000 cube fund valued cube for 4 pounds).
Maybe now without price brackets things will change.

We've always preferred to allow members the option of pricing their own cubes but we have to try things from time to time.

I also believe it would be great to be able to set price between the full values (eg. for 2,56 instead for 2 or 3 pounds only). Just a thought

Hi - You should be able to set the price using decimal points. Please try it and let us know.

Hi,
Is it possible to add to the "Quick Links Menu"...a link for "To Buy Members Cube".....i request this because, for new members, it's not totally clear that there are cubes for sale (unless you happen to be on the Cubes page). The live activity window is useless as it's ALWAYS chock a block with videos viewed.
Thanks

All done.

Whilst we continue to improve the site (we have another fantastic offerwall coming next week), what other changes would you like to see?

I wrote, but the answer didn't receive and money didn't receive! It is dishonest!
I earned, but you don't pay. You only increase the sum for payments!
When I came to your project, the sum for payment was 3 pounds. But you didn't pay, and increased to 6 pounds.
When I earned 6 pounds, you increased the sum to 8 pounds!. 3 years I want to receive the earned!
You don't think of the reputation at all and don't respect people!
I demand payment! also it isn't necessary to send me in support! Or you again will increase the sum for payment?
It isn't decent.

You do need to contact support. There is ALWAYS a reason if a payment is declined and ALWAYS an e-mail sent explaining why.

Hi madamsuper,

I have been standard member of this website for almost four years now and have received all my payments, whether on time or with slight delay. Just keep following up with admin through email and you will get your hard-earned money :)

Einstein once said, "A cube sale with out price brackets is always better than a cube sale with price brackets." :)

Thanks for support. But it is very unpleasant to demand. If work is made - it is necessary to pay for it. Good reputation it is very important. I so think.
Today I saw that again the ordered payment of 8 pounds returned on balance!
Well! Again I order! But it is dishonourable - to manipulate people.

Hi - if we didn't have a good reputation, we wouldn't still be online after almost 8 years.

You must contact support about your declined payment and address the issue. There is no point re-requesting payment before we have resolved why your payment was not sent.

I hope that now your project will pay and I shouldn't write more at a forum.

We have been paying for almost 8 years. You can write in the forum if you feel it's necessary, but you MUST address the issue in the e-mail sent to you.
