I think this is a great idea! Certainly couldn't hurt.
I have done many trades on FT, with established members only. I've given stuff away, and received as well.
I also get a lot of other e-mails from trolls with unsolicited offers, but that is par for the course.
If this is not a tremendous burden for the FT staff, then I vote that we implement this ASAP.
Great suggestion!
