Selling personal items via the list

[NW Modeling List]

Todd,

I would suggest that not only allow model trains be offered, but also memorabilia and books be allowed as well.

We shall discuss this matter at our next BOD meeting in early February.  As Frank stated, all comments, for and against, are welcome and will be considered.  Thanks to all.

For years it was the policy, decided by the BOD, that we would not allow advertisements for items that were not carried in  the commissary. This policy was reviewed and affirmed more than once over the years. After reviewing the question again, and the flurry of comments posted today, this policy will be discussed at the next BOD meeting in February. There are many factors to be considered, and all the comments received will be taken into account. Thank you all for your interest.

Mark,

Train shows are a good way to buy/sell however many of us live in areas where there is very little or no activity like that and must rely on groups or feebay.

Here in NW Arkansas it's model train purgatory! There's usually one train show within 70 miles per year. Many folks also have transportation issues to consider too.

Most of my groups allow buying/selling with some limits such as:

must be related to the group subject matter
transactions must be conducted offline
no formal business ads or sales
no long lists to eat up space and only mention of item & contact info
certain days of the week or month to announce deals

I think with any or all of these restrictions the N&W group could function as it should as well as comply with members ability to do some selling.

to me if your going to see train  or model railroad stuff why not sell it on the train shows i admit i have never sold nor bought  much the only thing i have is a model of j 611 i would think train shows dealers that sell trains equipment and so on do well there but maybe you might get a better price there just something to think about
