I have to agree with jennie here. I'm one of those people who just have a gander to see what members are looking for and if I have it, I'll offer it. Some of the things on there I would never dream someone would have a use for. I myself have a post looking for 'Rocks, fossils..' etc, now I'm sure a lot of members would never have thought someone would want things like that, but I do! Therefore the search function is of no benefit in case's like that.
