One of the things I appreciate the most about SMF is how closely sellers, buyers, and the exchange process are linked in such an accessible way. It got me wondering, "Does any other marketplace look and work like this one?" As far as I can tell, there is nothing like it. I've been to Audiokarma and Boardgamegeek and they don't come even close in scope or utility and yet if they had buyers as hungry as the ones of SMF, I would have packages going out daily. Are metals and e-waste uniquely ideal for this kind of economy? I imagine if this kind of thing existed in at least one location, we would be linking to it all the time.
