Re: [ATM] ATM Swap List

Jack,

I'm sorry to hear that. 

Besides Astromart and CN, are there any other options - aside from ebay of course. 

As an aside, it's hard to imagine a forum or sale/swap site that would be worth it without some kind of moderation. For instance, the few unmoderated Yahoo groups I've seen degenerate pretty quickly. Even here, accomodating as it is, we sometimes run afoul of the powers that be.
