I have never considered that one should offer stuff here first and
potentially lose something to true market value in an ebay auction. But
many have and I have benefited from that a time or two. In fact, IIRC,
the last such purchase was an OM-4 from you.
But I agree strongly with Andrew's position about not fostering a
bidding war amongst friends.
