hi people, today someone sent me a email complaing about my 4sale post:
quoted 4 lines Hows about instead of posting huge long lists, you just post a short message,>Hows about instead of posting huge long lists, you just post a short message, >and get people who are interested to email you privately. For alot of people >(anybody outside the US), this is completely irrelavant, and some of us have >to pay a phone bill you know.
..if you feel the same way, that i'm just wasting your time and money with my uninvited soliciting, just send me an email saying so and i'll stop posting the lists here next time i have something to sell- (yeah, i get idiotic Resonnance Records (100k) list too, even though i never requested it- $19 for a fax CD!??!?!? -anyway, i don't want to be like them) personally, i like when other people provide short descriptions with the CDs- because it gives me an idea of what will i find when i buy it- (especially if it looks interesting but no one mentioned it before) btw, i did say to contact me via private email and i do pay a phone bill since i have a PPP connection- see yah later- tell me if you have a problem with any of this- (private email) ..sorry for the low ambient/idm content. from anontrav@cnj.digex.net -<J> 'hmmm' <G>

If this is a problem, than anyone wants to sell/trade items just state this in the header, and anyone who doesn't want to read it can delete the message in 2 seconds. I personally have bought and traded many things from these sorts of messages and they are welcome for many of us on these lists. Also, I don't see how the Resonance list is a problem.. people who don't want to read it can just delete it as soon as they see the subject header. I've also bought/traded items with people from other countries from these messages so I'm not sure how the fact that someone is in a different country than the seller makes the message *totally* irrelevant...especially in terms of trading when no money has to exchange hands.
