Good point. I have no problems with people putting things
on eBay *or* offering them to the list *or* offering them
to me directly :)

One thing I've seen work on another list is if people
voluntarily put a prefix on their subject line, like:

   ebay: victor 9000

Hmmm...sounds good, think I'll try it :)

That allows people to filter out ebay postings if they don't
want to see them.
