I don't consider your buying 10 ROMs for your own use attempting to 
coner the market--even if somewhere down the road you will be 
selling (or swapping) them.

If I had ROMs to sell, I'd rather sell one here for $242.50 to a 
member who will use the ROM to make music than to sell it to Mr. 
Markup for $200 only to turn around and list it for $285.

A few months ago I believe there was a member who sold Mr. Markup 
either a ROM or gear with ROM(s) for less than what Mr. Markup sells 
them for. I would rather see someone I sorta know from the list have 
gotten more money and someone get it who would be making music--not 
reselling. 
 
The idea of a swap database seems to be a good one. I am not sure, 
though, how to protect swappers in the exchange. Let's see if we can 
develop this idea further.

Thanks for the suggestion.
