I understand exactly what he is trying to say. Is there a difference in the selling process....yes. But the end result is the same...money is exchanged for item(s)....and that is known as "selling"...no matter how you look at it. The fact is, it is no more different than the other postings I see here (ie. wanted to buy, for rent, for trade, best offer, etc.) so if those are allowed and no one calls it "spamming" then what is the issue with auctions? What about a person selling something "for best offer"? Wouldn't that constitute an auction as the highest bidder will likely be the person the item is sold to? As I said in my first reply in this thread...the posting should have said FA...not FS. So we are in agreement as per the last line of your post.
