Well, I used the keyword *manifesto* and nothing came out....charter
.... I did not know it under this name.

I cannot believe it, commercial advertisements are even permitted! I
made my message too long, according to your charter, ok; but I
understand all the sarcasm less and less, now.

That sum is the current market buying price for traders. That's the
market for DVDs
nowadays. I have not done the *market* myself , therefore, please,
don't lay the blame on me. And, If I may suggest, please visit a few
boot sales or garage sales next weekend, if you want to see it with
your own eyes....
In addition, I did not expect people to be happy at all. I expected
people to reply to my mail if interested (believe it or not 11 people
from usenet replied) and to ignore it if not. As the netiquette
states...;-)

Well, is your *charter* stating than before posting a commercial ad, a
user must ingage conversations with the other members of the ng [I wish
I had the time] in order to demonstrate his/her genuine intererst in
DVDs [because by default, you assume I am not. Are DVD traders not
interested in DVDs, in your opinion?] ?
I believe not! Then I do not understand all the hassle.
On the other hand, if you think this should be the case; I you wish ads
to be banned by the ng or accepted only if the sender is a known &
certified passionate about DVDs, then, please change your charter
accordingly or moderate the list or use a closed mailing list instead
of usenet: there are so many solutions but please, do not get angry
with who is just following the charter and the netiquette.
Thank you.
Irene
