You are 100% correct in every word you say, this is exactly how it should
be, post what you have to offer and at what price you want, then ask for
replys ="off-List"== direct between the 2 of you, good to know that a needed
part is available to the list 1st, if it's not sold, then fine go to e-bay,
but not the other way around, I like to see parts going to list members, but
as Rik Rock said, use auto-jumble. "FT"
