I don't mind seeing "for sale" postings in this group.  It does bother me
that many are being posted with world-wide distribution.  Why post a
message that costs the net "hundreds, if not thousands" of dollars to sell
items at hundreds, if not tens, of dollars?

If your news software will allow it, please restrict your posting's
distribution.
