If anyone needs a good near new digital hanging scale that ranges 0-2000
lbs, excellent for weight measurements needed for building race cars,
weighing large animals, weighing items sold by the pound, etc., I just
posted one on eBay with no reserve price (currently $30.00) at;

And you prove what's bad about this newsgroup.

This isn't a buy and sell newsgroup. When it was created,
there was debate about whether ads should be allowed, and
even back then (1995 or maybe it was 1996, I forget now)
it was a hot point, because the Internet was still morphing
from it's traditional ways to the sadly more commercial
arrangement.

Finally, they decided ads would be allowed, but if you check
the charter, they come way down after discussion.

SO it's bad enough that too many treat this as a buy and
sell newsgroup for old radio equipment.

But you violate that further by using it as a general
buy and sell newsgroup. And if advertising old radios is
sort of borderline, it's quite clear that ads like this one
does not belong here.

Yes, Mike you are absolutely right on about this listing. I'm the one that
listed it and just screwed up! So SORRY guys. I love boat anchors, have
plenty of them and just wasn't paying attention to the newgroup I was
putting this particular listing on. I hit send before I realized the
mistake. .................Mike.
