k thanks,
this is what i thought it ment but i wanted to be sure. a simple change
of the quanity to some rediculus number like 20,000 would fix the
problem. i’m still however curious as to what larry would have an
unlimited stock of. ondrew

He (or anyone) would theoretically have unlimited stock of a service
performed after the order is placed 1.
|
Does that not assume that the service provider’s time is unlimited?
I’d argue that a hobbyist would have a finite ability to offer a service.
In the commercial world a non-specialist service provider would simply find
a subcontractor, but a hobbyist would find that much harder to do.

You could argue that -- it may become undesireable to list a service with
infinite quantity if the service proves too popular ... I think that’s best
left up to the user, though.
|
But then the buyer has the risk of buying/ordering a service which is
not available?
In theory, I suppose the system could be set to offer no more than X sales
per time-period or offer customers an indication of the estimated waiting
time(?). The admins would have to do the CBA on that.

A user requested this thread be moved to market.brickshops -- didn’t think of it
before but I agree, so I reset the FUTs.
