Selling personal items via the list

[NW Mailing List]

There seems to be an emerging consensus that, especially on the Modeling
list, it should be permissible for a member simply to state that he/she has
item(s) for sale and can be contact at (phone and/or email) for details.

That’s a reasonable compromise that I could support. I would not want to
see posts that were like classified ads.
