Take a look at the below threads. Notice the posted format and prices. It looks like one person with multiple accounts. Possibly to avoid detection of spam? Someone may have learned that posting several phone sales in one post would likely get banned so they may be selling several phones on separate threads.. but it looks like one person to me.

I wonder how many other threads by bogus users have been started by this person.
 
It's still a work in progress, with a few notable issues, not the least of which is problems when posting from a device rather than PC or laptop, etc.

Looks pretty good though, as compared to the mish-mash of stuff that was being posted before. Also fights spam off a bit, that and the new policies having to do with pics/notes with username and date, etc.

It does make posts look a lot nicer when I think about it. A giant cookie to whomever came up with that idea.
