rec.photo.marketplace Trading of personal photgraphic equipment
rec.photo.marketplace will contain all "for sale" and "wanted" postings.
These posting will be restricted to the private sale of personally owned
and used equipment. This newsgroup specifically does *not* permit
commercial advertising, postings by dealers selling or soliciting
equipment, or postings by amateurs regularly dealing in used equipment
principally or incidentally for purposes of financial gain. It is intended
as a forum in which photographers can sell, trade or request equipment in
connection with their individual photographic interests. Postings which
receive no replies should *NOT* be reposted for at least one week after the
initial posting and should not be repeatedly reposted without material
change. Replies (other than factual corrections) should be sent *only* by
email and *never* posted in rec.photo.marketplace. Advertisers should
include a telephone number if possible in case there are problems with
email connections (and email problems are not unusal!).
