   (...) At the risk of sounding like a broken record, we also need to clarify the position of non-auction market posts in non-market groups since everytime someone points out that perhaps a market post might be in the wrong place, someone jumps up (...)

        Re: Royal Knights treasure Carrier 6044 and others —Scott Arthur
     <snipped> (...) 1. Whatever happened to the themed market group idea? 2. I do not think sale posts should be in theme groups if auction posts are not, as the distiction between the two is often not 100% clear to me (and others?). I'd leave them in (...)

     (...) The distinction between auctions and regular sales is bigger and clearer than the distinction between regular sales and other quasi-market-related things -- such as someone posting about a sale they found somewhere and then offering to buy & (...)

     (...) Really? Not in my opinion. Auction: Seller is selling something to the highest bidder. Sale: Seller is selling something for a set price to the first (?) person willing to pay the price. Yeah, auctions are different from sales, in execution. (...) (25 years ago, 17-Mar-00, to lugnet.admin.terms)
    
         Can we define flogging? —Todd Lehman
     (...) Rephrased statement: There are many more types and classes of non-auction market transactions than there are types and classes of auction transactions. (...) Heh heh! And how do you define that "plus whatever" part? :-) "Hey, TRU has this set (...) (25 years ago, 17-Mar-00, to lugnet.admin.terms)

From a market perspective, these types of posts probably belong in buy-sell-trade. I think it is reasonable to ask in shopping "could (...) (25 years ago, 17-Mar-00, to lugnet.admin.terms)
    
         Re: Can we define flogging? —James Brown
     (...) I think auctions get special treatment as an RTL reaction... auctions were the most obvious "hated" traffic, so they were singled out. Now that they're out of the way, some (most?) people are now expressing a similar distaste for any market (...) (25 years ago, 17-Mar-00, to lugnet.admin.terms)
   
        Re: Royal Knights treasure Carrier 6044 and others —James Brown
     (...) This would be my personal preference - no market postings outside the .market hierarchy that aren't fairly clearly for non-market purpose. BUT, I'm aware that other people don't feel that way. Here's some of my reasoning, in no particular (...) (25 years ago, 16-Mar-00, to lugnet.admin.terms)
   
        Re: Royal Knights treasure Carrier 6044 and others —Mike Stanley
   (...) I share this opinion. When I want to read market related posts I'll read the market groups. "Buy this from me" posts in themed groups bother me just as much as "I'm auctioning this" posts do. I've never understood the distinction. And frankly (...)
