We could have:

Town
Space
Duplo
Technic
Parts
etc

I say this as some buyers only want 1 type of Lego, and have to trawl
through loads of post to find the sets they need.

I can see why some people would want this, but my initial, gut reaction is
"dear god, the sheer volume of groups I'd have to track!"

Having the commerce in a central location is the easiest way until there is
say, more frequent postings than ~100/day.  When .market.* passes that kind of
volume, on a daily basis, then I can see the need for more focused sub-
groups.  Right now though, .market and .auction rarely have 20 new posts in a
day. (just perception, Todd might prove me wrong with the numbers)

(...) I don't like it either, but how about standardizing some catagories for this in the headers. I know that in newsgroups there is a keywords setting. That would be appropriate. And check boxes could be used for posting via the web interface. (...) (25 years ago, 29-Sep-99, to lugnet.admin.general)
