There has been a looot of talks about pros and cons of shop sales, auction sales, facebook pages, pictures, marketplace sales...
What Id like to know and actually form a topic where many breeders can see and find info as well, where do you like shopping for your kitty. This will help shop sellers to see the opinion of certain people, perhaps encourage some to open a shop, to open a marketplace shop or to join auctions or even look into some groups, either way this can be a beneficial discussion for all breeders, sellers and buyers alike, dont be shy to voice your thoughts
Here is few examples and keep note I may ahve forgotten some but youare welcome to add and talk of them
1. Advertising group notices
2. secondary marketplace web-pages
3. Fickr
4. facebook
5. Secondary Market shops (exploring sims)
6. auctions
7. Love shacks/gazebos/spots...
8. Bid boards
9. other way
Give us your opinion how you shop for your kitties, as well as comment on other ways that you think are good or less good for you.
Ill start with myself here:
I personally buy mostly at auctions, 90% of time I go for a live kitty with some unique traits or new ones that Id like to add to my own projects.
Notices I keep 99% closed down due to huge number of bot spams. Sadly web pages such as web sites, face book, tweeter ect... I do not follow either since as I said mostly what I need i find at regular auctions that I attend weekly or bi-weekly depending on rl.
There is times when I have a shopping spree along the love shacks but as bid boards go, I can say in a year of breeding I bought cats maybe 2-3 times off bid boards.
Instead of shopping for kittycats through notices, I much rather enjoy going through shops once or twice a week through few sims to see whats new, how are prices and if anything interesting is there to catch my attention.
thats just how I shop for KC
