That’s an interesting idea, Mike.

Certainly sounds like it could work.

They had a camera on the "stuff" and some had another camera for themselves. When a buyer came in, they could talk to the seller, and the seller could hold up the item and do a show and tell. Worked out good, the sellers were happy and items changed hands. It was up to the seller to set the payment and shipping method.
