How well does the "merchant outbox" work?

[MoiselleErin Teardrop]

I finally have a computer that runs V3. Not wonderfully but it does work somewhat.

 

Anyways I am considering maybe trying to sell a couple houses I have built. That is if I can get the "rights" straightened out.

When I was on V1 I tried using the "magic box" but had a lot of problems, not sure what i was doing wrong.

So I should ask then - how does selling thru the merchant outbox work? I understand I could probably "Google" this but that often leads to rummaging thru a lot of results that are cumbersome if they make any sense at all.

Plus I vaguely remember a lot of folks having problems with it. I should say I have had no problems buying from vendors that use the merchant outbox ting (nor the magic box)

But what advice would the other SL'ers have for me?

Most ppl have no problem with it.  There are quite a few threads on the problems ppl do have with it, over in Commerce.

I find it great, as merchant and customer. No failures yet (not that I ever had many). It's easy to post stuff off to my store; no more hanging around the magic box, waiting for it to change colours.

One of my rellies is miffed however, as being a breedables seller, she's stuck with the old box still. Despite receiving LL emails teling her it's time to make the switch.
