Change to Ed West's posting schedule

I have to agree with the posters asking you to continue as always. I, for one, don't have the time to go combing through e-bay, and barely find the time to check your listings - you were doing me one great favor guy. Those who have blamed you because of the escalating auction prices are barking at the wrong tree. Like someone mentioned above, big collectors like Sudek have many other resources for tracking this stuff on e-bay. Personally, I have no problem with the Sudek group winning as many auctions as they do, particularly knowing that some authors are being allowed access to the resource. Better that than having the photos disappear into a private collection never to be seen again, something which happens all to often with materials like these.

Another thing. By not 'exposing' these items, the effect may well be the opposite of what the complainees expect - the prices may come down, but the Sudeks of the e-bay world will still win the majority of the auctions for any number of reasons.
