Selling personal items via the list

[NW Modeling List]

For years it was the policy, decided by the BOD, that we would not allow advertisements for items that were not carried in  the commissary. This policy was reviewed and affirmed more than once over the years. After reviewing the question again, and the flurry of comments posted today, this policy will be discussed at the next BOD meeting in February. There are many factors to be considered, and all the comments received will be taken into account. Thank you all for your interest.
