I have noticed I seem to be getting more and more requests (and even sometimes demands!) from people reading my set lists on my member page to sell

Are other people experiancing this annoyance?  Is there anything that can be done about it?  Should I even care?

Thanks,
-Chris

Yes i have had offers to buy sets i wanted to buy, (picked up a 8880 Mint at a good price) and other requests, instructions etc. I was quite happy to help them out.
