Buying and selling things casually is not anywhere close to a "dealer" that keeps inventory and sells hundreds of items a year as a major part of their income. I think the spirit of the rule lies in that definition of "dealer" and you are equating someone who, say, finds a Speed Graphic at a yard sale for $10 and sells it here for $100 as the same thing.
Is there anyone else on this forum who wants to get rid of the Classifieds? I have to say, if you think that way, I do wish the programmers could setup a custom blocking command that lets users block certain subfora so the rest of us can enjoy the added benefit of finding LF and other photography equipment here without the constant complaints. Realistically, if you don't buy/sell, it doesn't effect you, other than seeing it in the weird combined thread list posted. It's not 1999 anymore .
