One way to avoid the mess of quickly sinking (to the back pages) sales posts is simply to fragment the sale forum.
I'm again suggesting that sales forum be separated into extension subforums/groups:
1. "The one, the only" > Com's
2. "Grand dames" > Net's + Org's
3. "New kids on the block" > Info's + Biz's + Tv's + Ws's
4. "Think global, act local" > Co.uk's + Us's + De's + In's, + Cn's + Es's, + Fr's...
5. "Other" > Nu's + Bz's + La's + Pro's...
(^Or something similar to that^)
That way the people who don't want to shop any other extensions other than com, won't have to go through heaps of elephant dung every time. Similarly people interested in lesser mainstream path opportunities will know excatly where to find them.
Also that way the posts will last longer in each and every forum since better names won't be overwhelmed by shittier names, thus giving each sale thread a real chance to last longer on top and its seller more chance to make a sale. It would require a lot less need for bumps, and b.s. tactics, thus giving all of us (including your infrastracture) a break.
We preach the power of "direct navigation", so how about implementing it on our own ass?
