I couldn't agree with you more heartily. It is a very pleasant and familial community. The times that I have bought eggs here, I have been wracked by guilt because of pittance that I ended up paying for fellow members fine eggs, but that does bring up an interesting point.
It doesnt seem like a very good place to sell. At times it can be a real den of paupers here with multiple people daily putting up posts begging for free eggs. Ive also read umpteen posts about people griping about being charge a few extra dollars for shipping materials, and daily posts complaining about the quality of packing. Only last week there was a woman who had a long thread where she was determined to leave bad feedback for a person because they had only given her an $8 shipping discount off of the amount which she had previously agreed to pay (the amount listed in the auction which she bid on)and she felt cheated. It is a very nice community but with 35,000+ members you never know what kind of nuthatch will buy your eggs. There is always someone who wont be satisfied with a job well done and then you run the risk of being slandered thrice weekly on this forum when you sit down for a good restful chat. It just isnt worth the risk.
