Location: East Tennessee | I agree with the fact that we tend to fill this section with ebay listings. I don't check ebay daily,(GAS), so if on occasion there is a bargain on ebay, I don't mind finding out here.
However SWMBO isn't keen on the idea. :D |

Location: Florida Central Gulf Coast | How about a 'FOR SALE/TRADE' by members and a 'SIGHTINGS' for the eBay, CL, etc. discoveries?
I agree with most here in that all the past postings were for the membership's benefit. Also if I were to post a 'sale', I would be discouraged with being pushed to the bottom due to the 'sightings' contributions.
As others have expressed, there is no need for anyone to apologize for feeding us leads. Newbies, such as I, have and will continue to deepen our appreciation of the 'O' via the vast knowledge base and kindness of the 'O Pack'.
Just my humble .02 FRN... ;) |

That would provide a place for the more Off-track, off-color, off-your-meds posts.
It could work. |

I've been guilty of posting the occasional eBay or CL find that I thought might be of interest (purely subjective, of course), so my apologies to any member whose personal for sale post I might have buried.
At the same time, I like the fact that some folks scour sites that I normally don't (or don't know about) and have seen some interesting stuff. |

[/QB] The 'door' is kinda left ajar with this statement at the FOR SALE heading:
This area is NOT intended as a "classifieds" section, but more like the bulletin board
Therefore I see no need in apologizing. We just need to 'fine tune' a bit. ;) |

How about ONE thread for flee-bay, Craigslist, off-site, et al stuff? See a new one, stick it there and it's all in one neat pile!
Eg: Off Site For Sale |

Location: Midland, MI | We recently had this same discussion on another board and the resolution was to create a second "Marketplace" section just for "check this out" posts. We called it "Bay Watch" (one member's suggestion which seemed to appeal to the mostly, uh, mature, male demographic for some reason or other).
Just sayin'. |

| Well a "Check this out" section might be a very good solution. Makes perfect sense.
Now.......who do we recruit as the sacrifice to bring this new found solution to Miles...."The Wizard Behind The Curtain" |
