It is often suggested on the list that people engrave their e-mail address
on the inside of their hubcaps so that when another listee sees them for
sale at a swap meet they can fire off a note to the list asking if
SoandSo@whatever had legitimately sold them when whatever vendor currently
has them up for sale.
If enough of us end up giving the crooked stolen goods vendors a hard time
at swap meets, it could make a difference, probably not, but it's nice to
have a dream.
