Sure it does. Just because you can't find it doesn't mean
it doesn't exist! Lol

However, there have only been about six postings to
rec.scuba.marketplace in the last two months so it is pretty
much worthless for selling stuff.

Just my $.02

It doesn't exist in Google, nor in any of the news servers I have
access too (which includes Supernews, a pretty comprehensive service).
Individual servers can carry local newsgroups, but these aren't part of
the official Usenet hierarchy.

My news server doesn't carry it either.

Most servers won't because it is such a dead group. It costs
money for most companies to either subscribe to out-sourced
servers or to maintain their own. My ISP uses newsfeeds.com
which supposedly carries 100% of the newsgroups out there.
Like I said, rec.scuba.marketplace exists but has only about
a half dozen posts in the last six weeks, hence, the "for
sale" posts here.

Just my $.02

No.

We're not interested.

We don't want advertising in this newsgroup, and we don't patronize
anyone who does so. Get this bullshit out of here.

Advertising with scuba content is a helluva lot less offensive than all
the non-scuba crap here.

List the rest of yer inventory. (The band mask.... Hmmmmmm.....)

There were several goodies available there.

And, I dont think the post was commercial in nature.

Mike,

I don't think that is the point

Ya know...not everyone that casually visits a newsgroup is familiar with
etiquette or specific "rules" in a particular group. I frequent the Harley
group and they post the FAQs and posting guidelines weekly. People still hop
on without buying the virtual drink, but it doesn't take long for them to catch
on. Why? Because if it's a somewhat valid post, someone will respond but nudge
them to read the FAQs with a well placed (and not rude) remark.

We have enough issues as an industry and brother/sisterhood of divers without
being exclusionary to those that reach out.
In this particular case, it's not up to any of us to judge as to whether or not
this woman's original post is a farce or valid. How about if we take it at
face value, help her and her family and perhaps get a very good deal.

For those that feel it's their place to play cyber-cop on this group, please
consider what message you'd like the recipient (and the rest of us) to take
from your comments.

There is truly valuable information on this board and it comes from sharing,
communicating and being inclusive. Not from driving people away, either
directly or indirectly.

I've seen the "comebacks" for those that have questioned such behavior, so feel
free to underscore my point.

Thanks for the opportunity to share my thoughts.

ps: for every post there is at least 1000 lurkers, and you never know who
they might be
