IMO........who cares. If guaging interest bothers you people so much don't read the post. Pretty simple I think.

It's just kinda stupid is all. Besides, half the guaging interest threads have a price listed, so wtf?

Off topic...but doesn't the word "guaging" look funny when you type it out? Or have we all been spelling it wrong? I know my puter thinks it's spelled wrong.

EDIT: http://www.thefreedictionary.com/gauging Here I thought they were guages not gauges in my car...? Huh...learn something new everyday.

because at one point there was nothing for sale on the board, it was "guaging interest" for everything, I don't see the point in it... If you want to sell a complete system, say "complete system for sale, $xxxx.xx" If you want to get xxxx.xx and not a penny less then you don't have to sell it for less. To me guaging interest means your thinking about selling something not selling, so maybe we should have a "guaging interest" section in the buy and sell area

So then you 'get it'...

People are thinking of selling something. Trying to make a decision based on response but not committing to anything. Its really quite simple and really dumb for anyone to actually care about whether the term is used or not.
