I too see nothing wrong with selling used or excess Macintosh equipment
in the macintosh notes groups.  I also don't see a problem with asking
for bids and taking the highest bidder.  Someone prior mentioned that
most sites get net.forsale (or whatever it is called).  That is not the
point.  The point is that some people (like me, for example) don't want
to read net.forsale.  It's just yet another newsgroup to wade through.
And no, I can't use kill files, etc.  I use 'notes', not 'rn' at this
site and kill groups don't exist.  Besides, the argument that kill files
can be used can also be used as an argument to allow them in the Mac
groups as those people who don't want to read about items for sale can
simply put a "*for*sale*" (or equivalent) in their kill files and ignore
them all together.

Also, the amount of traffic on the Mac groups dedicated to people selling
stuff hasn't been all that high (this discussion has taken more bandwidth).


My opinion is that the selling on Mac groups is fine.
