I cannot find a forum marked as 'for sale' and the site guidelines mention only "no links to auctions". I have almost 150 ISA bus peripherals in my collection and all must go. If it's permissible, I'd like to post a link to a spreadsheet in my Dropbox account and make them available to hobbyists and collectors. Can one of the moderators comment on whether this is allowed and where such a post should be placed? I'd rather ask permission than aggravate anyone.

Unlike the rules are about to change, trading is not allowed on the forums.

Ok, thanks. I searched the forum rules for 'sale' and 'sell' and found nothing. But, that's why I asked first - thanks for letting me know. In American English, 'trade' and 'trading' has a slightly different meaning than 'sell' - generally refers to swapping merchandise rather than exchanging it for money.

Vcfed.org forums and Amibay.com forums are good options for that.

Thanks, all. I have posted a notice over at VcFed in the appropriate section. I loathe FB and don't use it if that can be helped.

You can teach a man to fish and feed him for life, but if he can't handle sushi you must also teach him to cook.

It is like Palm plant, Toe Jam or Navel lint. Best to avoid at all costs 😁
