I still question why there should be a difference in where something is
posted based on who the seller is. Does this mean that I can post to
lugnet.market.shopping a list of good looking deals that I noticed on
eBay just because I'm not the seller? I see nothing in the charter of
lugnet.market.shopping which says only shoppers may post there, and I
know Todd doesn't want me posting a bunch of good eBay deals there.
