Don't try to get the most bang for your buck (or in this case, buck for your bang), and then get offended when others try to do the same. Remember, people are going to find your ad searching the internet whether or not they're members of the forum, so if your time is too valuable to deal with cretans who don't give a crap what you think of them, take your wares to a consignment shop, let the dealer put up with the idiots, and pay the commission.
Oh yeah, and I agree with everything you said. Common courtesy seems to be a lost art sometimes.
