So we could trade and sell through this forum.

One can start threads and let people know about the products that you are selling, but practically there cannot be any trade that can happen through any forum.

Yes, forum is not the right place to keep the private data like Credit Card details secure. If there is any secured logo on the web page then visitors feel free to use the private data in the online transaction. This is not possible on the forum though.

In practice, forums can be the great source to advertise your product as very few links are unclicked on the forums.

I mean like a sell and trade forum where people can post maybe sites or domains they are selling. then the buyer pays via paypal.

Have you ever experienced such forums before? I don't think that this will be secure way of trading. Well, I don't have any experience as such. We shall have someone who is already doing such trading. Only then we can get clear idea about the same.

I don't understand why it wouldn't be secure using paypal no matter what the frontend is, but anyway, i think it is a good idea.
I don't think there would be many posts, but as well as buying selling domain names, sites, etc, there are many clients of whuk who have small web hosting businesses of their own, and some may come up for sale now and again. I see them for sale on other sites all the time.

Thanks for your suggestion

Actually we already have a section where you can post all such trade leads and offers its " Online Business " section where you can post domain/website selling buying offers.
