Non-petro stuff has been offered for sale on the Non-petro forum occasionally for years. That's fine.
I personally consider stuff that was regularly found at gas stations back in the good old days to be on the edge of petroliana. Soda advertising and vending machines were often seen at gas stations.
My only concern with adding a new forum and encouraging non-petro is that it could lead to just about anything being listed. How about if we limited it to advertising collectibles, gameroom items and automotive / transportation items? I'm often weeding out those who want to sell the stuff we usually get spam email about.
I'm open to suggestions on this topic.
I have looked at some online auction software. No decision has been made. My big concern is the time needed to administrate. Seems like most users expect the auction site to police repros, con men and other issues. Yikes!
