[s-cars] More S6 ebay items.../No more!

[Tom Mullane]

You guys are opening a can of worms here.  Either "for sale" posts are
permitted or they aren't.  Yes, it is nice to get a heads up on a rare car
or part for sale, and some of this stuff has been allowed to slide in the
past.  But opening the door wholesale to allow posting of this type is not
practical.  The only thing worse than allowing for sale posts is trying to
allow certain types of for sale posts but not others.  This list is very
lightly moderated; let's keep it that way.  Please use the classifeds.

I'll third this.  I think the policy should be pre-notify the  list.  Give
us
your selling price and if we don't bite then put it on ebay  and announce.
 I
have bought a few things and sold a few things on this  list that would have
probably brought more on ebay but I felt like giving this  list the first
shot
at a price I thought fair.  This list is how I acquired  my CD-player and I
felt I paid a "fair" price.

I second that. If it were not for the  "my Dahlback bypass valve is for
sale on e-bay" posting on the list a couple  of years ago I would've
definitely missed this since I seldom visit the  Classifieds section if
ever at all...
