    The things in demand go wicked fast. Other stuff hangs around until the post gets moved off the first page of listings and then dies from failure to thrive.
    I may be slow... But I sure am gimpy.

    On HF, there is no need to look beyond the first page listing the For Sale threads. Beyond that, the good stuff is already gone. For that reason, when I am looking for something in particular, I subscribe to the For Sale Forum, and read the first posts as soon as possible.

    I think that it does make sense and definetely has value to the seller to take a look at more than just the first page. To only look at the first page would be doing yourself and the poster an injustice. What works for one person, may not be what works for another. HYOH/YMMV

    More specifically, I look at the posts with subjects that interest me, and I try to catch them before there are any replies.

    Erego, I look at the first page.

    ...or quicker sales.

    Depends on whether you are buying or selling, Walter!
