You could point to a eBay search for "Lego" to be fair (and helpful).
Individual, one-time auctions would not be listed here. Rather, ongoing auction
_sites_ would be listed.

On the lugnet.marketplace.shopping page there are links to several of the major

I'd certainly want JABA listed. Note that I don't run such auctions/sales
myself, so I'm speaking primarily from the buyer's perspective of wanting a
central resource to quickly hit all the good auction sites.
