Bikes: It's the motor, not the bike, right?

Craigslist etiquette

So, I find it very annoying that there is this guy on the Salt Lake City Craigslist that keeps reposting gaspipe road bikes for exorbitant amounts. Sometimes he'll repost the same bike just a day or two after he first posts it. He's obviously finding a huge supply of low-quality old bikes for cheap, investing nothing into them and trying to sell them for way more than they're worth. I cannot distinguish if I am jeleous because he is finding a butt-load of bikes and I'm not, or if it just bothers me that he isn't do it as a hobby but as a way to rip people off, or if it's just that he obviously knows nothing about these bikes. I'm still sorting this out with myself.
Anyway, so obviously this guy is not being polite by continuing to repost. Would it be ok to gang up on him as BF members and flag every single one of his posts to teach him a lesson? Would that be bad?
