    I was originally going to suggest, csa2.forsale as well, but there
is a good percentage of posts asking for used hardware, etc. rather than
selling old stuff.  Aren't there a couple other comp.sys.*.marketplace
groups already?  I don't think this is a unique name.

    It may take a little while, but hopefully people posting ads with
Apple II stuff in it will begin cross-posting to csa2.forsale if the
newsgroup is approved.  I don't see any reason why it shouldn't.
