playchess.com accounts on sale
Hi Chess Friends,
I have a few playchess.com accounts which I'm selling now on eBay at a discount price (you can get higher discount than listing price if you use "make offer" button).
Do you know on which forums etc. I could advertise them to attract more interest?
I hope to earn some extra money to buy a better Mephisto module
thanks for tips!

Hi Jarek,
Just to make you aware you are up against another cheap source of playchess.com serials. If you buy an old copy of Fritz software (Fritz 8,9,10 etc) from ebay, Amazon or Play.com - they often come with a serial and are only about £8 - £10 rather than the £23.50 you ar asking. So even if you never use the software just use the serial and file the DVD and make huge saving
Of course you have to be careful to check the small print as sometimes the Fritz DVD are re-sold by a 3rd party wholesaler (eg. Excalibur) and when the DVD arrives it actually has no serial with it. But if you are careful it is lucrative. I renewed my serial for 2 years running for about £7 by buying old copies of Fritz 10.

Hi Mark,
You may buy not one but two old Fritz from eBay and still end up having no valid serial (e.g. bad quality photo, seller forgot that he activated serial)
or 1-month / 3-months access instead of 1 year
or pay the same amount (if you use the "make offer" button) and have the serial almost instantly.
So you may be right but certainly you haven't answered my question
I'm really interested about chess forums which do not prohibit sales offers where I could put an advertisement.
thanks!

... and there is no guarantee that Chessbase will accept older serial numbers. I experienced that after purchasing a new old stock Deep Fritz 8 from a US seller. The playchess server would not acknowledge the serial number as valid.jarek wrote:Hi Mark,

Long time no speak hope all is well with you. Thats a very interesting point - I hadn't realised there was any danger of the serials time expiring, I thought they remained valid until first use. Mine were actually copies of Fritz 10 purchased from Play.com and had full valid 12 months serials that worked no problem. By the way before making use of this route I did check with Playchess.com sysops that they had no objection or that it was not viewed as anything untoward and they were OK about it, but were at pains to point out the benefits of the premium serial !
