Since it appears that MAAST is looking to increase their revenue, why not also add a fee to those who sell in the "For Sale" forum...whether it is a one time sale, or multiple. Just like Ebay, you pay a percentage whether the sale is a completed transaction or incomplete. I am sure with the open "For Sale" forum, as it stands....no rules/limitations, MAAST could potentially make hundreds a week.
I thought we (MAAST) was once targeting NON PROFIT, but as it seems, as an outsider looking in, it is nothing but making a profit. I see no "Frivolous" spending on events or gatherings; giving back to the MAAST Members.
