I'm not a window shopper, so I appreciate announcements of new items
being posted to c.s.a2 as well; I only read marketplace when I'm
actively looking for something.

And yes, being on the other side of the world, it does annoy me when
an item is only listed as deliverable to a US address. However, I
still would like to see the announcement since if I'm interested
enough, I might lean on an American friend to take delivery on my
behalf then repost it.
