>From a community standpoint, I think it's a good idea.  It wouldn't harm
sales in any way... If someone wants to sell a Squeezebox, they're going
to sell it somehow.  The forum would just make it convenient to
community members.

You'd need some fairly clear rules and there would be some inevitable
moderation, including the locking and deletion of threads.  I would
hope that's OK with everyone and doesn't raise the censorship debate
once again.  But the forum won't be for discussion, so it should be
fine.

I would suggest permitting the sale of anything audio, as well as
pretty much anything computer & networking related.  Again, as a
convenience (service?) to community members.  Want to sell a wireless
router that someone else could use?  Perfect place for it.

I would also suggest that users _not_ be permitted to post links to
eBay auctions or to listings on other for-sales sites such as Audiogon.
Require a full item description and a clearly stated price (with or
without OBO) for all items appearing in listings.
