Very cool, have seen a few sites doing this sort of thing. The only concern with these type of services is the fact that scammers will harvest trust on small trades and then scam big trades.

Your service should verify the real life identities of users or perhaps work in some sort of escrow.

Best of luck

Thanks for the suggestion. Yes, this is a common tactic that scammers on eBay do. I will work on mitigating this form of abuse.
