Request for assistance: Need a wiki page for buying and selling GTA01

[Ortwin Regel]

Wiki pages are nice but they are not really a good way to push info to
people as you would like to do if you have just put your phone on ebay
for sale. If I decided to sell my phone, I'd probably send a message
to the community mailing list. Is this wanted or would anyone be
annoyed by it? I'm not really sure but it would probably be the most
effective way to find a buyer for your phone.
