... I am finding it less and less possible to keep up with this list anymore
so I don't know any details on what prompted this and other responses to FS
posters, but from what I've seen over time I'd say that Huw has been pretty
reasonable about when he calls people on the carpet for selling things on
the main list. To me, someone posting one car for sale, or a single post
with several cars in it is not a sign of someone using the list to create
income for themselves ... which is when I start to have problems with FS ads
on the list. There are folks who seem to be on the list to sell stuff ...
when you look at their list posts a significant percentage of them are FS
ads ... to my mind this is abuse of the list.
As others have noted there is a Marketplace on the audifans site ... I know
that I monitor the list for items for sale, and actually have been fairly
active there. If someone doesn't think anyone looks there because they
don't get responses to their ads it may well be that they are trying to sell
things that noone wants ... or they are asking too much for what they have
for sale ...
