Pardon the auction announcement...
I did this and got blasted for it. I don't think FA (for auction) posts
are that bad, escpecially on classic cmp
for classic cmp related material.
But what I am asking is the offical rule-of-thumb on this for this mail
list. Anyone like to clarify?

Rules, we have no rules, only complaints. ;)
People on this list do what they want, those that don't like it complain,
but we have no police, and I don't think anybody has ever been booted off.
That said, if you want to offer something to the list, offer it to the list.
Trying to get a few more bidders on your ebay auction is typically seen as
merchantile, not friendly, activity.
Regardless of the above I say if its stuff people on the list will want,
post it, but be a man about the criticism, because YES you are doing it for
the money, not the pure pursuit of junk collecting.
