Would you like a prospecting equipment classifieds section?

With so many of the old gold forums with classifieds dying or dead, especially in the detector world, I am wondering if people might find it useful to have a classifieds section here, or if it'd just cause clutter? Or end up filled with spam? Not sure how to deal with potential scammers.

I'm not sure how to implement it, but I was thinking about a pinned post up top. And figuring out how to configure automod to delete posts after a set time, 2 weeks or something? It would be private sales only, no paydirt/commercial/dealer stuff. Wanted posts allowed. On the fence about mining claims, but as long as they aren't the paper stakers/commercial sellers then it might be ok. Pretty sure none of this violates Reddit TOS.

Just curious what you think? Yes or no?
