I recall the forum getting money from sales of Ebay items linked from here. Why not have a forum (stealing the idea from Retrobike) where you can list what you have found on Ebay? i.e each item is an individual thread.
I always imagined a kind of blend of local adverts and remotely held adverts.
The hard part is that we don't want spam and adverts that aren't maintained... so we created that rule to not cross-post. We were going to solve that issue by creating a "Classifieds" type (like the "Conversation" and "Event" type), and remotely held adverts would be available only to premium/verified members... or something like that.
So it would be a pay-to-play... but you could advertise without paying and pay to get more capabilities and prominence for your adverts.
And getting people to pay for classifieds seems like a stupid idea.

The current thread is primarily a list of links with no indication of what the item is. Or it was the last time I bothered to look at it.
