I'm glad you find it promising, if it helps smooth out using the marketplace for people i see it as a win. This suggestion was made with this forum and it's current goods sections. It could be applied to a special sub board or other forums if someone wanted.
This crosslinking can be done fairly easily in the forum itself. What I did took a bit longer because I used one post to simulate 13. Linking to posts takes a few seconds once toy get going. A thread like the one you currently have could be done into this in a few hours I imagine. Then it's just a matter if adding and removing as time goes on.
Topic: [Template] for Brokers or Market type sellers - Not a sale thread (Read 184 times)
This looks promising and I appreciate your effort on trying to accommodate the brokers.
Are you suggesting that a broker could have use of a special forum that would give them this type of auto-linking functionality built-in as provided by forum software? Or are you simply suggesting a possible guideline and showing an example of a process that brokers could follow?

Catchy Edgy Sales Name goes here
Note the Double Horizontal Rule will represent a new post for this.This thread is just being created as an example of how people with a wide range of products can use the forum without it getting spammy. The consideration is that I don't want it to have a negative impact on their ability to market here; especially when the product is suited to the space. I mostly had this in mind with hardware brokers but it could be applied to many different sales offerings. This would be their "Sales Landing Page", I would personally crosslink it to a separate Service thread - and make note that questions and answers as well as discussion can happen there. This thread I would make a self moderated and Locked topic, as it should serve as a catalogue of all offerings and not necessarily the place for discussion. Note: I would not use those features on the Service thread as you want to remain open and transparent, just my opinion.
The OP has essentially a table of contents linking to as many sub categories for listings you want to create. The sub categories are the first posts in the thread, so reserve as many as you think you may need, and probably a few extras. These sub categories will link to each of your follow up [WTS] or [WTB] offerings. This makes sales threads no more than 2 clicks away from the product they are looking for.
These paragraphs would be a good place to explain how to contact you about particular offerings. For brokers it would proably be a good idea to explain how the sales process works from this point forward. Any information you find relevant to the potential customer. Then starts the labor intensive part of grouping your offerings. I'm only creating a small sample to give an overall ideal of usability. If you found you OP growing to large and the lists getting long you could put them in columns or create anchors, and link to each topic from the top of the OP.
Asic miners
GPU's
Power Supplies
Full Lots
Only available as a package offer. Placing them here deters people from trying to purchase part of the lot. I won't bother making an example here but it would be the same as the previous categories if you have multiple listings that fall into this.

S9 offerings post: We'll pretend these are separate here you would link to all your offerings that have S9's available. You can group these off into the variations like "i" and "j" or overall hashrate. This can be done in their own lists for ease of use. Personally I would use the description of quantity available price and any other details you want and Hyperlink that to the offerings post.
