It may come down to a choice between your preferred "light touch", Cristiano, and plain old business.

It's a decision only you can make, but if I were you I'd start with charging a small fee for any merchants who want to post in any of the SLU Classified sections, unless they're already a paying advertiser.

That would include New Product Listings and Commercial Announcements.

I think it's admirable that you want to help the community but I don't think you should be expected to foot the entire bill yourself. That only invites people to take advantage of you.
