I think there should be a buying/selling feature of the BBS.

Won't it be better to use an external site like Yahoo Auctions or eBay and simply link to the item?

Aren't there all kinds of fees for that?

Yes, but those fees go to provide a competitive service.  Who in the management of this site has the time to deal with escrowing money, the legal shit, and so on?  I'd love to see a FSP version of PayPal / eBay, but that would likely be a separate venture from FTL.
