1178.0. "Pointers to Items for Sale" by NETRIX::thomas (The Code Warrior) Tue Oct 19 1993 19:28

Conference policy is that we don't allow "For Sale" notes.  (See 1.67.)

Still, people have things to sell that people here would be interested
in buying.  So the deal is this:

	� You post your list of items for sale in CLASSIFIED_ADS.

	� You post a pointer to that note here, in this note.

You can have only one reply active at a time, and you cannot re-enter
your reply until an interval of six months has passed.  All replies must
be deleted once everything is sold, or they will be deleted after six
months without warning or notice.

(Press KP7 or Select to add IESE::CLASSIFIED_ADS to your notebook.)

Respectively,

Why?  I find no justification in 1.67 for not posting wanted/for sale
besides that "we never have."  Even the fear that it might not be allowed
was disclaimed.  Why shouldn't we lift the ban for some time and see if it 
causes problems?

    i have to agree.  some people are just selling things for the benefit
    of others, rather than a profit motive or the need to get rid of
    things.  if the procedure is made too difficult, people wont bother and
    we all lose.  I think sales items should be limited to books though,
    not trading cards, models, movies, etc.
