I also find the occasional non-Friday FS posting a lot more relevant and on-topic than discussions of Rushing Presidents and monster SLR lenses that cost more than most Yugo's. (Car talk is #1 the worst) But as far as the "Live and let live" theory goes the time to nip this Ebay mania in the bud is now; at the roots. People post their Ebay and as part of their excitement then POST IT HERE TOO. OR refer to it which is close enough. This could get out of hand real fast the way I forsee it. I'm guilty of getting sucked into the most off topic topics you can think of but I'm glad the buying and selling is way it is. IF it was going on all the time it would ruin it for me. AND THIS EBAY THING IS JUST THE THING TO DO IT!!! And The next thing you know Zen Monks will be opening pawnshops. With a capital T and that rhymes with E and that stands for Ebay! Mark Rabiner!
