FA??? Not Interested.
This group is overrun with FA links to eBay auctions.
Does anybody actually look at the FA posts? If it's something I'm looking for, and it's on eBay, I already know about it. I don't want them shoved in my face here. I come here looking for FS items which are not on eBay. Does anyone else think the group should be limited to FS/WTB, and should ban FA posts? Paul |

Classified ad's are quickly becoming a thing of the past. Does anybody actually look at the FA posts? That's pretty much *all* I come to this group for. It serves as a starting point for what's being offered in the used marketplace. If it's something I'm looking for, and it's on eBay, I already know about it. I don't want them shoved in my face here. Tough. This is a 'marketplace' newsgroup; ads for eBay auctions are perfectly acceptable. Get over it. I come here looking for FS items which are not on eBay. ....And nobody's stopping you. If you don't want to see the FA postings, use kill filters. Does anyone else think the group should be limited to FS/WTB, and should ban FA posts? Irrelevant. This is not a moderated group; no such ban is possible. A_C |

forgery by Brian L. McCarty

I agree. I'll begin to work on the problem immediately. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. Robert Morein Shop 'N Bag, Pennsylvania The above is a forgery by Brian L. McCarty. "Ripoff alerts", posted along with false bluebook pricing, are made under various pseudonyms by McCarty, a pest on rec.audio.marketplace, where he accuses innocent sellers of various misdeeds. He appears to be a pathological liar, with unknown motivations. For a long time, McCarty posted as "OFFICAL RAM BLUEBOOK", but more recently, he has used a variety of other pseudonyms. Ironically, he runs websites which have the look and feel of investment fraud. McCarty is the owner of websites http://www.coralseastudios.com, and http://www.worldjazz.com, both of which have used fraudulent advertising inattempts to attract investors. Both have been unsuccessful. McCarty is an American expatriate, originally from the Chicago area, then LA where he worked as a sound mixer, currently living in Cairns Australia, where he manages the Baskin-Robbins ice cream franchise located at Shop G6, 59 The Esplanade Cairns QLD 4870 07 4051 4034 McCarty lives in the Coral Sands apartment complex at 65 Vasey Esplanade, Trinity beach, a bit north of metropolitan Cairns. Baskin-Robbins Australia may be contacted at . |
