IMO, posting a "heads-up, I have some parts for sale" message here before you list them on the .org, Vortex, Ebay, etc., gives the listers the first crack at them and takes very little bandwidth if you instruct them to contact you off-list...
That kind of preferential treatment tends to reward the active listers (which I think it should).

I'm generally happy with the new car (don't get me started about the dealership, though), but have still kept my garage stocked with 'rocco spares, "just in case." The threats are starting anew, and I can see as where I'd better get to doing something about it. So, my question is, what do you folks recommend for moving a relatively small amount of Scirocco parts? I used to buy stuff from individuals who posted here, and that worked pretty well (at least from my end). It looks as though that traffic has moved to the scirocco.org site; is that working well for everyone? What about Ebay? I've got a digital camera, and thought about posting pix of the stuff (especially the used and/or hard-to-describe stuff) to link to any ads I place. Do you find this helpful, either as buyers or sellers? Thanks,Jeff WheelerColumbia, SC
