Personal Gain Retail Selling II

[QSHIPQ at aol.com]

John:
No one should have to make the call, that's the point.  Understand, IMO2, it really matters not whether someone has a personal gain, in fact, I argue if the value of a GP is good enough, the originator *should* get a personal gain for the hassle.  It's still a good deal for everyone.  Separate argument that misses the point...

The *call* by a listmeister on what is pure and what is "personal gain" is the point.  As a GP member I don't have to know that your "deal" is pure, don't care actually, it's either better than what I can get alone.  Or not.  As apposed to anyone having to see if any "claims" are true, why not just delegate it to a list or marketplace.  IMO, marketplace fits what it is, a group buy of goods offered by a seller, mediated/coordinated or not.

John, "personal gain" doesn't matter, and claiming it (anyone) doesn't always mean it's true.  It just needs a more objective place in which to reside outside of a listmeisters subjective evaluation.  It's that simple.

I'm not accusing you of anything, cuz it doesn't change the argument, the point of my post, or the price of my clutch kits.
