Well, there was sort of a disagreement (IIRC) about having them in .b-s-t,
which is why Emmanuel decided to move his posts to .shopping. I think the
arguements were that DYA is a store and not a privately run business.
However, IMHO DYA *does* fit better in b-s-t. Emmanuel announces the sales in
person, and it's very similar to "stores" like Baylit and the like. After all,
Baylit uses a form ordering too. Just because the lego sales in DYA are part
of a larger store... I dunno, it doesn't make it a "shopping" thing to me
either.
DYA is just too unique to be classified, it doesn't fit in the ordinary
definitions of either groups.
