One of the challenges will be getting order information from the buyer to the seller in a way that is consistent and error-free. Item numbers, unit prices, shipping, tax, total due. Without a shopping cart application, sellers might be best served by bundling shipping and tax into the item price. Alternatively, gopher commerce could make use of a purchase order/invoice pattern. That’s a bit more work for everyone, but should reduce miscommunication.
Sending a self-addressed stamped envelope was my first thought!
But seriously, if someone had something cool for sale on gopher, email and Paypal would probably be the way to set up the sale.
Yes, 100%.
