DR. BLACKTAPE ISN'T QUITE SURE IF SMARMY IS THE RIGHT WORD...

But he agrees wholeheartedly with LUGer Hausner's condemnation of using the
LUG for Ebay advertising. The LUG is a gathering place for
at-least-a-little-vaguely-like-minded Leica-fixated folks, not an Ebay
outpost. Offer the equipment to your friends at a fair price, then, if it
doesn't sell, move it to Ebay and attempt to scalp the masses.
