     Then there are those who put an article for sale

     Ebay seems to have succeeded in bringing out

I can't figure out which way you want it? If you post it on eBay first
its "unfriendly and selfish," if you post it on the LUG first its the
"worst in human behavior."  

The only thing uncivil about either is whether or not it falls within
the rules of the LUG. People generally want to live up to the rules of
the group they are in. In the absence of rules, common sense applies.
Just be aware that someone will be offended no matter which way you do
it.
