    Jim,

    Feeling stupid that I never discovered that functionality in seven years on this site, I played around with it. So far as I can tell, Advanced Search (in both of its two slightly different modes) has limited capability to parse searching, but I see no function to limit the search to specific sections of the site. It it exists, it is too hard to find, and in any case, searching just the section you are actually in should be the default, with an option to search the entire site. It also would not hurt to have an option to sort threads either by start date (the default being most recent first) or by threads with the most recent added comments (that option might already exist; I don't know). Regarding sub-sections in the For Sale section, I'd keep them pretty general; even the dozen main sections on the Sierra Madre 911/912 page seem too many and could be consolidated as a starting point for discussion; but maybe also have a section 'NOS'. Finally, I also would not favor ebay-like bidding. All of this being 'in my opinion', of course.
