REA Marketplace

Of course! Thanks. I was trying to just use the last posting to see what was new, and it wasnt working anymore with this other stuff being posted voluminously.

Still, there has to be a better forum for selling signed unused helmets than REA.

I use the "newest listing" sort to view items also. And yeah, someone recently flooded the marketplace with tons of signed 1980s baseball cards and, like you said, jerseys, helmets, whatever. Definitely a lot of stuff that's probably of little interest to REA's usual clientele and a worse browsing experience.

Based on your post, I was about to recommend that REA add a filter. But it turned out they already had one (which I didn't know before today).

How about a "Marketplace Lite" with a different URL to keep such things in their place? That would be great. www.bric-a-brac.biz seems to be available.

A person looking to buy a Blake Bortles mini helmet saying to themselves, "Hmm, maybe I'll also grab a Home Run Kisses" just doesn't seem in the cards, or vice versa. Then again, this strategy of selling everything under a singular umbrella worked for eBay, so there's that very proven track record and my observations are completely incorrect.
